Podcast Episode 1 or Chapter 8, Worship (pg. 168)
The Rev. Benjamin Gildas is an Episcopal priest, brother in the Anamchara Fellowship, game designer, and prolific content creator with the All Ports Open Network and APON Games. Ben recently published Broken: a Tragic Romance Game and is the founding host of the podcast Priest Pulse.
He lives outside Philadelphia with his spouse, three children, and St. Margaret, the chocolate lab.
In this episode we discuss the gift and wonder of patterned worship centered in the community of the Book of Common Prayer.
- This is the way that is both ancient and modern, and it is how we ‘continue in the apostles teaching…’ the first active promise of the Baptismal Covenant
- It is about experiences of God in Christ and community, not about magic spells or rigid rules.
- Furthermore, it is a holy kind of mundane – the very normal life that Jesus embodied.
- And, it sends us out into the world. Our way of worship isn’t about itself, it is about living as a healing witness to Jesus everyday.
