The Way of Love

Many of us have witnessed the excitement surrounding Presiding Bishop Michael Curry’s “Way of Love” in his preaching, books, videos and podcasts. In his words, it is “more than a program or curriculum, it is an intentional commitment to a set of practices. It’s a commitment to follow Jesus: Turn, Learn, Pray, Worship, Bless, Go, Rest.”

We invite you to “Get Started with the Way of Love.” In this space, we will offer links and inspiration to follow Jesus’ Way of Love and learn more about this important new direction of The Episcopal Church.

With our new mission statement, “Live God’s Love,” St. Columba’s embarks on a new, and yet familiar path, as “a welcoming Christian community of all ages that encourages spiritual curiosity, celebrates children and youth, and embraces the world in the spirit of God’s justice and love.”

Explore These Practices for a Jesus-Centered Life.
