It is a weird church isn’t it? Not unlike a weird Cat Avatar

I see, yes all of us contributors to this site have also grown up in evangelical circumstance, gone to evangelical, private schools and are now Episcopal. It’s a weird thing.

Basically, yes I grew up in Evangelical circumstances. I attended private, Evangelical schools, but it never really came home with me.

Jordan,

Hope you don’t mind me asking, are you coming to Anglicanism from an evangelical tradition? We young former evangelical anglican refugees need to stick together. Anyway, thanks for you kind words. Its nice to know one is not alone in one’s contradictions.

Scott,

I too like a good Virginia-Perique blend. Right now I’m trying to finish off a couple of aromatics (I know, I’m such a sell out). The whole class divide in liturgical colors is an interesting (if sad) phenomena, I might bring that up with the Dean of the Cathedral I attend, he’s a real liturgy nerd (I laurel him with that title with the upmost respect).

Blessings to all, and happy Advent,

James
