The news sites, blogs,
facebook pages, twitter handles, and smart phone apps listed below are an
attempt to help you sync your digital world with the spiritual reality. These resources are used and trusted by your
clergy and other clergy around the Episcopal Church. I hope that these links help nurture your
spiritual life and help you stay connected with the church at home and
abroad. Feel free to comment below if there is a resource that you would like to share.
Daily
Devotion Websites:
Forward Day by Day is a booklet of daily
inspirational meditations reflecting on a specific Bible passage, chosen from
the daily lectionary readings as listed in the Revised Common Lectionary or the
Daily Office from the Episcopal Church's Book of Common Prayer.
A very good and very quick
daily devotional site with five tabs: Pause, Listen, Think, Pray, Go.
Each tab includes short reflections, prayers, and passages from Scripture, and
it even plays pretty music in the background.
The CCblogs
network is a community of independent bloggers exploring the Christian
faith. This is an excellent resource for
those looking to keep in touch with the pulse of the church today.
This
is a great resource for those looking to investigate the lectionary readings
(Sunday readings) for a given week. This
site includes sermons, bible studies, children/ adult formation resources, art
work, commentary, and much more.
An independent ecumenical platform that produces and
publishes multimedia (mostly videos) to stir imagination, spark discussion and
move people toward discovery and transformation.
Mockingbird is a ministry that seeks to connect
the Christian faith with the realities of everyday life in fresh and
down-to-earth ways. We do this primarily, but not exclusively, via
publications, conferences, and online resources.
Daily, lectionary-based
reflections that are submitted by contributing clergy and lay scholars from
throughout the Episcopal Church.
The ATR is a
quarterly journal of theological reflection.
In the spirit of sound learning that has been the hallmark of Anglican
divinity, our aim is to foster scholarly excellence and thoughtful conversation
in and for the church.
The Living Church is comprised of communion-minded and
-committed Anglicans from several nations, devoted to seeking and serving the
full visible unity of the One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church.

the clergy and staff at the Cathedral Church of the Advent.
Frederick Buechner is an American writer
and theologian. He is the author of more than thirty published books and has
been an important source of inspiration and learning for many readers. His work
encompasses many genres, including fiction, autobiography, essays, sermons, and
other nonfiction.
This is a great resource
center that includes links to 10 different daily devotional sites from a wide
range of theological perspectives (Eastern Orthodox, Roman Catholic, Reformed,
Evangelical Protestant, etc.).
A wonderful daily devotion
from the Brothers at Society of St. John the Evangelist, an Episcopal Monastic
Community in Cambridge. This can be accessed via the web link or can be
sent as a daily e-mail with a subscription.
This requires an opt-in
subscription, but once subscribed, you will receive daily reflections from
Father Richard Rohr, a very popular, contemporary catholic priest and
theological. I often find these reflections to be very helpful.
