Episcopal Beliefs & Practices
Our Adult Christian Education lets you explore the mysteries of the bible with other like minded classmates. Take a journey through The Book of Common Prayer, the Christian life, and basic beliefs of our faith, guided by two Episcopal priests - Scott Gunn and Melody Wilson Shobe. Walk through the liturgical year, the sacraments of the church, habits of daily prayer, and the teachings of Anglican Christianity. See how our prayer shapes our belief and our lives and how our beliefs lead us into a deeper relationship with Jesus Christ.
Walk In Love is the perfect introduction into what it means to not only worship as an Episcopalian but to live out the Christian life as an Episcopalian! In informative, easily digestible portions, the authors walk through the Book of Common Prayer, the place of the Bible, the practices of faith, and the structure of the Episcopal Church, connecting them into everyday life. This book should be a staple for newcomers classes, adult forums, and anyone looking to learn more about living life the Episcopal way.

About the course
This curriculum, Practicing Our Faith, is a course about prayer, beliefs, and practices, and about the intimate relationship between those three things. It is grounded in The Book of Common Prayer, because these are the prayers of the Episcopal Church, the prayers that both shape and reflect what we believe. It is amplified by the liturgies of The Book of Common Prayer, which help articulate what we Episcopalians believe about life and death, about sin and grace, about ourselves and about God. This curriculum contains twenty-six sessions designed for use in weekly formation time, with each session approximately an hour long. With twenty-six sessions, this means that Practicing Our Faith is intended to function as the formation curriculum in a church for an entire program year.
