Synopsis

A comprehensive and readable guide to The Episcopal Church for adults at every stage of faith.

This newly revised edition reflects the life of today’s Episcopal Church, incorporating recent developments in theology, worship, and public witness. It addresses changes and initiatives such as marriage equality, the full inclusion of LGBTQ+ persons, the former Presiding Bishop Michael Curry’s call to join the Jesus Movement, and the Church’s renewed emphasis on living faith beyond the walls of the sanctuary. Expanded reflection questions follow each chapter, and a newly added Leader Guide makes this edition especially well-suited for adult formation classes and group study.

Written in clear, welcoming language, Your Faith, Your Life guides readers through the heart of Episcopal belief and practice, exploring the rhythms and meaning of worship, the shape of Anglican theology, the sacraments, the organization of the Church, and the ways Episcopalians engage with Scripture, prayer, and daily life. Along the way, it provides the vocabulary and context needed to understand not only what Episcopalians believe, but how those beliefs are lived out in community and service.

Designed for newcomers, adult formation groups, and lifelong Episcopalians alike, this book invites thoughtful reflection on faith as a living, evolving journey. It creates space for questions, growth, and transformation―making it an essential resource for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of The Episcopal Church and their place within it.
