About Me...what is an 'evangelical-catholic?'

Elk Grove Village, IL, United States
I was born & raised in rural mid-Michigan (M-go blue!). Life & work have taken me to many different places. God has too, as I've come to learn that faith is a pilgrimage. I very much resonate with the label 'EVANGELICAL-CATHOLIC.' I was raised Baptist, but found myself drawn to the Sacraments & Liturgy of the Church. I appreciate very much the words of the Augsburg Confession: "...nothing has been received among us, in doctrine or in ceremonies, that is contrary to Scripture or to the church catholic." Evangelical-catholic is a term of self-designation used by Christians coming from a broad spectrum of theological perspectives and commitments, ranging from Lutherans, Anglicans, and various Evangelicals yearning for greater catholicity .....to faithful Roman Catholics longing for an evangelical renewal of the Church. Perhaps beneath the apparent denominational differences there lies a common...groaning of the Spirit of God, who is seeking to draw the members of Christ’s mystical body into a communal life that is both fully catholic and fully evangelical. One can always hope and pray!

experiencing technical difficulties

Remember way back when in the days of only 3 TV channels.....ABC, NBC, & CBS.....(I never counted PBS).....and every now and then they'd experience some kind of "technical difficulties," and you'd just see a screen of colored bars?
Well, something LIKE that is happening with my ability to record my sermons.
My trusty Olympus DVR appears to have died on me. It's been acting up for the last several weeks, and this last Sunday (the 12th) it chose to not record my sermon at all.

A new model is on order--hopefully better, faster, stronger--but until I have it and have learned how to use it, there will be a brief interruption in my ability to post recordings of the Sunday sermon. Watch this space for more info.

Thanks & God bless!
