The Third Sunday Of Advent (Gaudete)
The Third Sunday Of Advent (Gaudete)
Stir up thy power, O Lord, and with great might come among us; and, because we are sorely hindered by our sins, let thy bountiful grace and mercy speedily help and deliver us; through Jesus Christ our Lord, to whom, with thee and the Holy Ghost, be honor and glory, world without end. Amen.
Today we continue a five-part series on Richard Hooker’s theological masterpiece, The Laws of Ecclesiastical Polity. The course is taught by Fr. Patrick Cheng, our Theologian in Residence.
Richard Hooker, a sixteenth century priest in the Church of England, is widely acknowledged as the founder of the Anglican theological tradition and one of the great Anglican theologians. In this series, we will explore Hooker’s life as well as the preface and eight books of The Laws of Ecclesiastical Polity.
we will discuss Books IV and V of The Laws and the Anglican liturgical tradition. A modern English translation of the preface and first four books of The Laws of Ecclesiastical Polity will be available for purchase in the parish bookstore. The bookstore will also carry an introduction to the life and thought of Richard Hooker.
