Note the numerous links on these blogs to other blogs.
You can waste the whole day on this stuff!

epiScope is glad to add Grace Concerns to the Eyes Center list.
Passing time reading what other people think is a great way to be connected to the larger world. Then, we need to come home to our own work, which is, as Fr. David in Security said it,living up to Grace Episcopal Church's name.
Jan...I have been asked by more than one person where they can connect to the larger world without being depressed by the super-pious and holier-than-thou commentary on the conservative sites, hence the posting. Perhaps we can work in a little "living up to Grace Episcopal Church's name" in the larger world, also. That is, after all, where our current controversies are coming from.
My prayers are with you folks. It's astonishing what a malcontented minority under Armstrong's leadership have done to the real Episcopal Church there.
You may enjoy the essays at The Episcopal Majority. And if there's anything we can do to support you during this time of exile, please let us know.
