Dear Epiphany,

When I was in sixth grade I had two Sunday school teachers, Dan Burnt and Mike Clampy. They were lawyers in a church full of doctors; you recall I grew up in the shadow of the Mayo Clin-ic. They were young with young children, and they had this love of God and way of talking about God that was so different than what I experienced with my parents. I’m not sure how Sunday school was organized at St. Luke’s Episcopal Church in Roches-ter, Minnesota. All I know is that I went every Sunday, and that sixth grade was the year that we put God on trial. Yup. That was the year that the sixth grade class was broken into two teams: the team that prosecuted God and the team that defended God. I was placed on the prosecutorial team. It was our job to prove that God, and the very idea of God, was false, silly, and a dis-traction away from the better impulses of humanity. My archrival (not really, we were good friends who had grown up in the church) across the aisle was Paul Mayberry. He was the lead for the defense team. And so, for many weeks we would gather Sunday morning in our teams doing research, mapping strategy, planning rebuttals, and setting the course for winning the case. Finally the day of the trial came. Judge Kreiger (a real judge who was a member of the church) presided. There was a jury, probably the choir. The congregation gathered in the Great

God on Trial at St. Luke’s A reflection by the Rev. Doyt L. Conn, Jr.

The Holy Spirit is alive at

Epiphany right now pushing

us toward community;

toward inter-generational

friendships; toward invita-

Church is utterly unique in

its capacity to bring people

Hall to watch. There was even a reporter from the Rochester Post Bulletin (probably also a church member). We prosecuted God, mostly on the platform that God is disproved by the legitimacy of science (that sort of seems funny to me now). I’m not too sure what the defense’s line of argument was, as I was nervous, and this was the age where I was particularly self-absorbed. In any event, we lost. They said it was close. I think it was rigged. I mean. come on, it was a “hostile” environment for the prosecu-tion.

But here is the point: Mike Clampy and Dan Burnt made a huge impact on my life. I imagine sixth grade Sunday school attendance was high-er than it had ever been. The congregation knew what we were doing and would ask us how it was going at coffee hour. This Sunday school event captured my imagination, and I might be so bold as to say it set me on a path of explora-tion, or shall I say seeking God, which continues to this very day.

This is an example of how community can be alive in the formation of young people. It is an example of how real world work can be applied in a theological context. The Holy Spirit is alive at Epiphany right now pushing us toward com-munity; toward inter-generational friendships; toward invitation, inclusion, and sharing. Church is utterly unique in its capacity to bring people from different ages, backgrounds, and contexts together to recognize, own, and seek God.

My question is: where does God meet the work you do or the way you live? How might you

share that with young people at Epiphany?

Starting in the fall, we are moving all Christian formation to the 10 am hour: adult formation and Sunday School for children and youth of all ages. The hope is that this will become the time when the entire community gathers for spiritual formation in classes for adults and children. There is much that went into the planning of this new, unified 10 am spiritual formation hour, and there are many reasons the formation team feels it is a good idea.

But for me, one of my deepest hopes is that Mike Clampy and Dan Burnt show up. Not physically, but rather in you. When Sunday School doesn’t overlap with church, I hope that many of you will consider leading a Sunday School session for our children or youth where you share your passion for God and the exper-tise you have picked up along the way. I hope that you will share the passions of your life and your pursuit of God with young people in this church. And, know this, if you feel this call but aren’t sure how it will play out, find me, and we’ll figure it out together over the summer.

—Doyt+

As we get into summer and closer to the fall, you will be hearing more about this change on Sundays, as well as other plans we have

for regular parish-wide fellowship and inter-generational community.

Epiphany Parish of Seattle | 206-324-2573 | [email protected] | www.epiphanyseattle.org 3

“Epiphany” is a recent painting rich in color and sweeping movement. Spontaneous paint strokes amass into areas of color, ascending and de-scending along curving lines, suggesting a cos-mic drama. The lower, denser area points to the natural and secular world striving to break free of its earthly bondage by its upward push. With its cooler whites and blues, the uppermost area reaches down, as it were, in an assurance that a spiritual union between the two is being achieved. The union of these two halves mirrors our most basic religious strivings: the basic need of man to transcend his limitations for a union with the eternal.

People have asked me if such a painting is really religious art. How can one have a religious painting without traditional religious imagery, such as images of Christ, the Madonna, or scenes from the biblical story? Traditionally, in the Middle Ages, Christian art was used to teach moral lessons and Church doctrine of obedience to God and the consequences of sin .We see this especially in the vivid, dramatic paintings of Brueghal, Van Eyke, Grunewald, and Van der Weyden—images meant to keep one on the right moral path, or at least persuade one of the horrible consequences if one didn’t follow that path. But while such paintings conjured up our empathy and sympathy, witnessing the ordeals of Christ in the Passion, traditional Christian imagery can restrict us to a narrower response to particular events, not allowing us to trans-cend the particular into a more inclusive, trans-cendent, uplifting experience of the divine, or God. It has been my attempt to at least make “Epiphany” a mirror, or visual analog of such an experience.

By definition, an epiphany is a revelation, a sud-den insight perhaps from above, an illuminating experience, a powerful intuition of a deeper, more lasting truth. While I’ll be the first to admit

“Epiphany” Painting in the Fireside Room

such claims may be over-reaching as applied to this painting, they remain the only ones which I think could apply given its current display in the Fireside Room. “The Fall,” on the opposite wall, is a visual analog of a descent into hell or purgatory. Here one’s eye moves rapidly down-ward on a precipitous path, suggesting a fateful plunge into a primordial world below. The bu-colic natural world in the “Epiphany” painting gives way to a swirling cauldron of twisting shapes bending with evil intent, leaving no al-ternative for escape. The lack of identifiable im-agery only heightens the effect. My aim is to have the viewer encounter the painting in a way that raises his own unconscious feelings, or fore-bodings, recognizing that this path is to be avoided at all costs.

Hence, in summary, the two paintings, “Epiphany” and “The Fall,” mirror each other. “The Fall” with its message of impending doom, and “Epiphany” with its message of hope.

—William Ingham

“The Fall” looks far better in color and in person. Have a look the next time you are in the Fireside Room!

William “Bill” Ingham (williamingham.com) is a parishioner and a renowned local artist who

has contributed to the aesthetic of Epiphany by donating two original paintings, “Epiphany”

and “The Fall,” which are hanging on opposite walls in the conference area of the Fireside

Room. In response to questions, he offers this artist’s statement about the works.


to become a professor, writ-er, preacher, and lecturer. Her chapter titles in this book, for example, “The Practice of Wearing Skin (Incarnation)” and “The Practice of Saying No (Sabbath)” reflect her sense that all of life is holy. In this book, she calls readers back to spiritual practices as part of daily life. To quote her introduction: “Wherever you are, you live in the world, which is just waiting for you to notice the holiness in it. So welcome to your own priest-hood, practiced at the altar of your own life.”

—Ann Lockhart

The Divine Conspiracy

by Dallas Willard Dallas Willard was a pro-fessor of philosophy at USC and has significantly influ-enced my teaching and preaching at Epiphany. This book outlines the sys-tematic theology of the Kingdom of God, creating a framework around which to think and talk about

God. If you have questions about life after death, or who Jesus is, or why bad things happen, or what the good life is, then this book is for you.

Beginning in September, I will co-lead a ten-week minyan based on this book with Todd Fos-ter, our new curate, on Sunday mornings during formation hour. Read more about the minyan on our website.

An Other Kingdom: Departing the Consumer Culture

by Peter Block, Walter Brueggmann, and John McKnight From the back cover: “The consumer culture holds the belief that no amount is enough. An Other King-dom provides a new narra-tive, a shift in our thinking and speaking, to take us out of a culture of addic-

tive consumption into a place where contract is replaced by covenant, consumption is replaced by neighborliness, and time is reclaimed as our own.”

The Senior Minyan found that the authors aren’t advocating for revolution so much as they are inviting us to examine long-held assumptions about what is good for society. They say we’ve held tight to the idea that “what’s good for busi-ness is good for America” for so long that we’ve forgotten that that idea is an assumption we make and not a natural fact, like gravity or the Pythagorean theorem. They invite us to consid-er the possible benefits of a society that builds strong interconnected communities rather than strong independent corporations.

—Ben Bradstreet

An Altar in the World

by Barbara Brown Taylor We used this wonderful book as the basis for discussion at our 2015 Women’s Retreat with Kate. Barbara Brown Taylor, one of Kate’s favor-ite authors, is a priest who left church ministry (described in her earlier book, Leaving Church)

Epiphany Summer Reading List

Wondering what to pack for that trip to the beach or European vacation? Look no further! Bring a few titles from this outstanding list of books Epiphany parishioners are currently reading. There are so many study groups, small groups, and minyans gathering to discuss books around here, you should have no shortage of opportunities to read, learn, and outwardly digest this summer and fall.

—Kate Wesch+


The Chronicles of Narnia

by C. S. Lewis This series of seven young adult novels is a mesmeriz-ing and thought-provoking series for all ages. Read over and over, these stories can be engaging adventure narratives or much deeper theological exploration.

Consider starting The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe

this summer, perhaps reading aloud or listening to the Radio Theatre edition. In the fall, the Se-attle Children’s Theater will perform this story, and we hope to weave together a curriculum for some of our Sunday School students with a field trip to see the show.

—Elizabeth Walker

The Book of Forgiving: The Fourfold Path of Healing Ourselves and Our World

by the Revs. Desmond Tutu and Mpho Tutu This book is a beautifully written and deeply practi-cal inspiration about the universal need to forgive and be forgiven. It outlines a clear and compassionate way to walk the forgiving path to healing whether or not you have contact with the person who harmed you or that you have

harmed. The fourfold path includes telling our story, naming our hurt, granting forgiveness (what I call releasing our hurts), and renewing or releasing the relationship. The Book of For-giving moves through the steps of the path slowly, suggests spiritual practices, and tells powerful stories from the Tutus’ own experiences and others they’ve witnessed or heard.

—Emily Linderman

Epiphany Summer Reading List

The Dean’s Watch

by Elizabeth Goudge The setting is a remote nine-teenth-century cathedral town in England. The story is about the unlikely friend-ship between the shy cathe-dral dean and an obscure watchmaker, which leads to an unusual spiritual awak-ening in the entire commu-nity.

The Dean’s Watch was my introduction to Elizabeth Goudge, some 30 or 40 years ago. I was so im-pressed with her ability to tell a great story, cre-ate unforgettable characters in a believable setting, and at the same time convey a sense of deep spirituality pervading and influencing the world she was creating. She was enormously popular and, as is often the case with popular writers, did not get the critical acclaim that the quality of her writing deserved, but she is still in print and beloved, which attests to her genuine and lasting value.

—Sandra Darling

Other Recommended Reads

Simply Jesus by N. T. Wright Several parishioners took an online course on this book from the author and met to discuss it. They plan to host another group in the fall for anyone who still wants to do the course.

The Great Divorce by C. S. Lewis Jonathan Roberts plans to begin the C. S. Lewis minyan with this book in the fall. Feel free to read ahead!

Rising Strong by Brené Brown The 2016 women’s retreat discussed the princi-ples of vulnerability from this book.

Not in God’s Name by Jonathan Sacks If you still haven’t read it, there are a few copies in the Christie House Library to borrow.

Children & Youth Ministries

Youth Are Getting Confirmed!

Since November, ten Epiphany youth have been gathering every few weeks for a confirmation class led by Doyt Conn and Heather Edwards-McRobbie. The Episcopal Church expects all people who are baptized at an early age to make a mature affirmation of faith and commitment to the promises made at baptism and to receive the laying on of hands by a bishop. Confirmation gives us a chance to speak for ourselves before our community and claim our membership in the church.

During the class, the youth have learned more about the Episcopal Church, the sacraments,

and the Bible, and they have had a chance to explore their own faith. They have also met with mentors from the parish to discuss their faith and their questions. At the end of the class, they will have the opportunity to decide whether they want to be confirmed at this time or if they want to wait.

I hope you will make a special effort to join us on June 5 at the 11am service as we host Bishop Rickel and celebrate the commitments our youth, as well as many adults, will make.

—Laura Sargent, Youth Ministry Convener
