The Collect Call: For Proper 25

“Wait, didn’t we just have this prayer?” Well, kind of, except not. The prayer for proper 25 challenges us to rely on faith, hope, and charity to love God’s commandments. Except is that really what we want? Featuring cereal that won’t make you bleed.

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.
