This week I’ve prepared a video which gives viewers a short account of the founding of and mission of the Anglican Internet Church, plus a preview of the current 12-book catalog.   The theme of the show is embedded into the title graphic:  “tools for increasing your knowledge.”  There are 25 slides.  Running time is just over 26 minutes.  The video is available on our You Tube channel and also through a link on the Home page at our newly-redesigned Web Site.  The sound track is also available as a Podcast.

I’ve resumed work on our newest video and podcast series, The Lives of the Saints – Second Series.  The programs celebrate 35 Eastern and Western Church saints not given Holy Days in the 1928 Book of Common Prayer.   Like the First Series, these programs grew out of a series of Tuesday evening homilies at my former parish.  These “pen portraits” of the saints were intended to help parishioners to a better, fuller understanding of both the lives and death of the saints and their influence on the development of the Church Universal over the generations.  The series is not just about the gory details of martyrdom but also the contributions of the saints to theology, music and liturgy.
