Clergy of the Diocese of VA with TEC Presiding Bishop, Katharine Jefferts Schori

http://www.virtueonline.org/portal/modules/news/article.php?storyid=6072

[VirtueOnline] 30 May 2007--A follow up question by another priest asked the Bishop what she does with the Great Commission. The priest asking said she felt the Great Commission had been watered down.

Bishop Jefferts-Shori responded that it was to be lived out by "teaching and forming and baptizing and nurturing and continuing to prod people to grow up into the full stature of Christ." Absent from this answer was any value of evangelism. There seemed almost a reticence or bashfulness about spreading the Gospel to those who have not yet heard it.
