“While it is incontrovertible that the love of Jesus binds us to serve the poor, it is also pellucid that the social gospel is a byproduct of the Great Commission… Jesus didn’t say, “Go and make social workers” but rather “Go and make disciples.””

The Church celebrates the Annunciation today — when Mary said yes and the Word became flesh. Join us for the Eucharist at 7pm at Holy Trinity (74 Trinity Rd). Bread, milk, honey & angel cake to follow. The Lenten fast is lifted today.

“is your parish focused first on making disciples? Is there a year-long and even multiyear strategy for Christian formation? If not, your parish is likely in decline regardless of how it falls on the conservative/liberal, orthodox/progressive spectrum.”
