The Collect Call: For Proper 23

A short prayer seems like a throwaway until our fearless hosts and special guest start digging into bizarre grammatical structures and obscure vocabulary terms. It’s that kind of podcast, y’all. Also: biblical typos, and crashing a women’s retreat.

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.
