What do Anglicans believe about Mary, the mother of Jesus? This edition of Ask the Church explores the Anglican view by asking three key questions: What must we believe? What may we believe? And what do we set aside as inconsistent with Scripture and tradition? From Mary’s role as Theotokos (God-bearer) to questions about perpetual virginity, the Assumption, and the Immaculate Conception, this teaching shows how Anglicans honor Mary as the greatest of the saints while keeping Christ at the center.

Very Rev. Charles Alex Riffee // Psalm 82; Hebrews 12:1-14; Luke 12:49-56

Why pray words that aren’t your own? From the Psalms to the Lord’s Prayer, the Bible is filled with examples of God’s people using pre-written prayers in worship. Far from stifling authenticity, these prayers connect us to the wisdom, breadth, and unity of the Church through the ages—helping us pray in ways we might never think of on our own. In this edition of Ask the Church, we explore the biblical roots of pre-written prayers and how they can enrich both personal and corporate prayer today.📩 Have a question for a future episode?
