GO SPEAK. GO DO. GO DEEP.

In order to go forth, you’ve got to go deep…We are disciples of Jesus, following in his footsteps, not going our own individual ways. And to do that you have to go deep, deep into the very life of the living God. Deep into prayer, deep into the Word of God, deep into the worship of God, deep into the ancient wisdom and practices of our tradition of faith. To go forth, you have to go deep.

Hail Mary

Opening prayer Introduction

Come, Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of your faithful and kindle in us the fire of your love. Send forth your Spirit and we shall be created. And you shall renew the face of the earth.

Disciple as learner

Dwelling in the Word/ Embedding scripture

Once while Jesus was standing beside the lake of Gennesaret [otherwise know as the Sea of Galilee], and the crowd was pressing in on him to hear the word of God, he saw two boats there at the shore of the lake; the fishermen had gone out of them and were washing their nets. He got into one of the boats, the one belonging to Simon, and asked him to put out a little way from the shore. Then he sat down and taught the crowds from the boat. When he had finished speaking, he said to Simon, “Put out into the deep water and let down your nets for a catch.” Simon answered, “Master, we have worked all night long but have caught nothing. Yet if you say so, I will let down the nets.” When they had done this, they caught so many fish that their nets were beginning to break. Luke 5:1-6

Dwight Zscheile’s question: How does the shape of life in the Episcopal Church foster depth and commitment to the way of Christ and how does it undermine it?

Rooted and restless

But mostly rooted.

Dwight Zscheile’s question Who are we as Episcopalians and what are we here for?

Questions posed by the Outline of the Faith: The mission of the church is to restore all people to unity with God and each other in Christ. How are we doing that?

From Pope Francis’ Homily at Daily Mass on February 14, 2014 You cannot think of a stationary Christian: a Christian that remains stationary is sick in their Christian identity. The Christian is a disciple to walk, to move.

Go deep. A call to spiritual growth.

In your own journey, what were periods of spiritual growth? What helped that happen?

In your own journey, what were periods when spiritual growth stalled? You got stuck? What caused that?

And by spiritual growth we mean what?

By spiritual growth, we mean what? Growing in relationship with God, neighbor, world and self

The relational dimension of spiritual growth Jesus said: The first commandment is this: Hear O Israel, the Lord our God is the only Lord. Love the Lord you God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, with all your strength. The second is this: Love your neighbor as yourself. There is no other greater commandment than these. Mark 12:29-31

Questions/comments

Elevating expectations: What might that look like?

There is more.

O God of unchangeable power and eternal light: Look favorably on your whole Church, that wonderful and sacred mystery; by the effectual working of your providence, carry out in tranquillity the plan of salvation; let the whole world see and know that things which were being cast down are being raised up, and things which had grown old are being made new, and that all things are being brought to their perfection by him through whom all things were made, your Son Jesus Christ our Lord; who lives and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
