LitBit Commentary – Passing the peace

Posted on 27 May 2016 by CraigT

LitBit: To say “peace be with you” is not to say hello but is to utter a prayer, so that the passing of the peace in church is in fact a practising of prayer, and a preparation for the serious work of praying for each other. We might, then, speak of the passing of the peace as a kind of sacrament of intercessory prayer.

LitBit Commentary – James Torrance on Prayer 2

Posted on 12 October 2015 by CraigT

“The gift of sharing in the intercessions of Christ is that when we do not know how to pray as we ought, the Spirit makes intercession for us. Whatever else our faith is, it is a response to a Response already made for us and continually being made for us in Christ, the pioneer of our faith.”

James Torrance, Worship, Community and the triune God of Grace, p.18
