The Collect Call: For Proper 15

In our twentieth episode, Holli and Brendan determine that substitutionary atonement is a shade too heavy on two hours of sleep, and ensample some interesting linguistics without the help of our Linguist in Residence. 

The Collect Call is a podcast that unpacks and reflects upon the meaning of the collect of the week – that prayer at the start of the service that changes every week. Turns out there’s a lot in those little paragraphs! Hosts Brendan O’Sullivan-Hale and Holli Powell challenge themselves to learn about the history of the prayers, reflect on their spiritual meaning and application to daily life, and, inevitably, reduce them to tweets.

Amen.
