012: The Prayer of Humble Access

Rate, review, and subscribe on the podcast player of your choice. "We do not presume to come to this thy Table, O merciful Lord, trusting in our own righteousness..." Today, the Rev. Dr. Jim Salladin joins us to discuss this beautiful and uniquely Anglican prayer, recited before coming to the table of Holy Communion. We learned some key lessons: You don't tug on superman's cape. You don't spit into the wind. You don't pull the mask off that old lone ranger. You don't tell Jim Salladin that the Prayer of Humble Access is a second occurrence of confession within the liturgy. Find out why this statement of our own worthlessness points to Him whose name alone is to be glorified, our most merciful God. On a technical note, the audio is a bit rough on this one, we are aware and working to fix it.
