http://www.pcaconversations.org Fri, 19 Jun 2009 19:52:03 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.2 en A podcast that facilitates discussion about ministry in our denomination, the Presbyterian Church in America (PCA). We hope to converse in the Spirit of Christ, loving the broader church and our denomination as they are, and loving them enough to spur them on toward their appointed end.

Bill Boyd gave a lecture in St. Louis entitled “Renewing Worship: Moving from the Lecture Hall to the Banquet Hall.”  In this, our third podcast, we talk to Bill about real and perceived trends in worship in our denomination, how Reformed Catholicity might be pursued and embodied in our worship, some hermeneutics involved in the consideration of our practices, and the frequency and significance of Communion in the Bible and church life. In keeping with the aim of this website to foster real conversation in our denomination–-as much as is possible in a virtual medium, at least–-we will occasionally publish real conversations instead of text-based reflections. So welcome to the third PCA Conversations podcast. Please continue the conversation in the comments, where Bill and others can answer questions.
