Living Confessions of Love

Be Strangely Warmed on Ash Wednesday

This week I was invited to join the Strangely Warmed podcast, hosted by

Taylor Mertins

. Jason Micheli joined the conversation as well and we talked about the readings for Ash Wednesday, Year B (Joel 2.1-2, 12-17, Psalm 51.1-17, 2 Corinthians 5.20b-6.10, Matthew 6.1-6, 16-21).

Our conversation covers a range of topics including repetitive books, Rev. Fleming Rutledge, liturgical popularity, the 1662 Book of Common Prayer, repentance, corporate fasting, the memory of mercy, masks, Stanley Hauerwas, the grace of God, #ashtags, and public prayers.
