ST. ANTONY IN OUR DAY?
This past week, on January 17, with so much else going on, I did my best to observe the feast day of St. Antony of Egypt. I suppose he is not known to most Christians, certainly not like the more popular heroes and strong leaders of the faith. St. Antony, who died in 356 AD, was rather the opposite. He seems to have fled popularity and strength. Even before Christianity became legal in the days of Constantine (4th century AD), there were those Christians who were wary of the trappings of wealth and prestige. Antony’s parents were apparently quite wealthy landowners in the 3rd century AD, in Egypt. When he was about 18 years old, they died, and he was left with both a considerable estate and an unmarried sister. Somehow, he heard the words of Jesus, “If you want to be perfect, go, sell what you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven” (Matthew 19:21). He disposed of his wealth, gave much away to his neighbors and to the poor, made sure his sister was taken care of, and he took off into the desert. This was about 270 AD. Stories abound of St. Antony in the desert. Though not the first Christian hermit and ascetic, he is often credited with being the “Father of All Monks.” There are tales of his skirmishes with demons and temptations. He fought laziness and boredom. He tried to avoid conversation with people who came out to ask him questions, but he nevertheless accumulated disciples who appreciated his wisdom. Much of what we know about him was written by the great Athanasius of Alexandria, in his Life of Antony (360 AD). So, at the Cathedral of St. Philip, we remembered St. Antony this past Tuesday. What does it mean, in our day, as fairly prosperous American Christians, to remember Antony? For me, personally, I admit—almost daily—that I have not been called to give away what I have accumulated or what has been left to me. The vow of poverty is a monastic vow, but it is not a priestly vow. Nor is it a baptismal vow. The world has been made richer by prosperous Christians who also knew how to give, how to share, how to use wealth to benefit others. I hope we all know that wealth can be a tremendous obsession, whether we have it or even if we don’t. We are drawn to its power, and fascinated by its ability to command attention. It may be that the more we sense we are losing things, the more we are allured by those who seem to have things. Thus, every prosperous Christian does well to remember the monastics: the hermits, the ascetics, those who have been called and able to deny material comfort and seek single-minded worship. Those monks—believe me!—are not pure! They have their own battles. They are the first to admit those battles. But their struggle serves as an example to us. No matter what we have, or what we don’t have, God invites us to a life of single-minded devotion.
“Follow me, and I will make you fish for people.”
From this week’s lectionary Matthew 4:19
Those who engage this struggle, trying to give and to serve from whatever position God has called them in life – those who engage this struggle, are those we call humble. Their humility engages us, inspires our imagination, calls us! In his biography, there is one thing Athanasius of Alexandria said of Antony of Egypt that represents the fruit of such struggle. Athanasius, describing Antony, asked, “Who ever met him grieving and failed to go away rejoicing?” Indeed. The fruit of Christian leadership is in serving others, in such a way that they are blessed by our presence – whether we have plenty or not. Whatever we have in life, or don’t have, Christian service in our day rests in blessing those around us.
The Dean’s Forum this Sunday will feature another speech, a shorter one, delivered by Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.: his “I Have A Dream” speech. We will also have time to discuss that material, as well as his “I’ve Been to the Mountaintop” speech, which we heard last Sunday. Join us in the parish hall at 10:10 a.m., for “Holy Listening with Martin Luther King, Jr.”

CHILDR EN The Nurturing Center is open for children three and younger from 8:30 a.m. through the end of the 11:15 a.m. service each week. Children’s Chapel takes place during the 8:45 a.m. service as an option for parents and children who are not yet ready to experience the full liturgy together, though children are always welcome in “big” church. Children three years through third grade begin in church with their parents, follow the children’s acolytes and leaders out at the Sequence Hymn, then rejoin their parents at the Offertory.
ADULT EDUCATION Unless otherwise noted, these adult education classes are held Sunday mornings from 10:10–11 a.m. THE DEAN’S FORUM (CHILD HALL) The Dean’s Forum this Sunday will feature another speech, a shorter one, delivered by Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.: his “I Have A Dream” speech. We will also have time to discuss that material, as well as his “I’ve Been to the Mountaintop” speech, which we heard last Sunday. Join us in the parish hall at 10:10 a.m., for “Holy Listening with Martin Luther King, Jr.” OLD FASHIONED SUNDAY SCHOOL (ROOM 133) This year, we join Christians across time and around the world in exploring the question that Jesus posed to his disciples: “But who do you say that I am?” In particular, we are examining images of Jesus from various historical and social contexts, together with the implications of these images for faith, then and now. This will be both a historical survey and an invitation to reflect on our own theology of Christ (“Christology”). Jaroslav Pelikan’s book, Jesus Through the Centuries, will be our companion along the way. In the fall, we traced conceptualizations of Christ from the New Testament into the Middle Ages. This spring, we’ll resume with the Late Middle Ages and make our way into the 21st century. The class is organized by Mack Leath, and the discussions will be led by Canons Cathy Zappa and George Maxwell, with an occasional guest teacher. As always, you will find those things that we think matter most: a light heart, a broad welcome, and good coffee. We look forward to seeing you there. COFFEE AND PASTORAL CONVERSATIONS (ROOM 120) Join Canon Wallace Marsh as he delves into a variety of pastoral topics. Canon Marsh’s presentations will involve scripture, theology, and of course, clips from popular movies. Grab a cup of coffee from the well and join Canon Marsh in Room 120. All are welcome. January 22: Why Social Media? January 29: Dealing with Stress February 5: Called to Serve February 12: What is Love? February 19: Called to Lead February 26: Struggling to Pray
THE DIVINE DANCE (ROOM 239) Drawing from scripture, theology, and the deepest insights of mystics, philosophers, and sages throughout history, Fr. Richard Rohr presents a compelling alternative to aloof and fairytale versions of God. The Divine Dance makes accessible and practicable the Christian tradition’s most surprising gift: God as community, God as friendship, God as dance. Canon Carolynne Williams leads this class. SMALL GROUP BIBLE STUDY (ROOM 122) Jim Bingham and Gordon Mathis lead an ongoing small group Bible Study focusing on a particular book of the Bible for several months at a time. BIBLICAL GREEK (ROOM 356) Beginning Biblical Greek is offered on a drop-in basis on Sunday mornings at 10:10 a.m. Continuing Biblical Greek classes are offered on Sundays from 1:15–2:45 p.m. for anyone who wants to learn the basics of translation using grammar aids, lexicons, and commentaries. For more information, contact the Rev. Dr. Thee Smith at thee.smith@emory.edu.

DISCERNING A CALL TO PRISON MINISTRY? With more than 600,000 Georgians under correctional supervision, it is hard to imagine a church in our state without members affected, in one way or another, by incarceration. 97% of those incarcerated will be released back to their communities at some point, where they face many barriers to “reentry.” As members of Christ’s body, it is important to consider whether there might be a role for us in ministering to those facing “reentry.” The Healing Communities training, which will be held in the Gould Room on Saturday, January 28 from 9 a.m. – 3 p.m., is designed to help congregations understand, embrace, and minister to individuals and families who have been impacted by crime or incarceration and/or who are navigating the challenges around reentry, reconciliation, and reintegration. Best suited to small groups, the training also provides space and structure for participants to do some self-reflection around these issues and to begin exploring concrete ways their churches can respond. If you are discerning a call to prison or reentry ministry, you don’t want to miss this unique opportunity! Space is limited. The cost is $10, for lunch and refreshments. For more information or to sign up, contact Canon Cathy Zappa, czappa@stphilipscathedral. org or 404-365-1043.
ALLEGRO: MUSIC FOR YOUNG CHILDREN Using play, movement, singing, and instruments, Allegro and Musikgarten classes help younger children through age 5 develop musical skills and knowledge as well as an appreciation for music, using the Musikgarten curriculum.

All classes are taught by Brenda Pruitt, and are held in the Allegro room, downstairs next to the choir room. For more information and to register, go to stphilipscathedral.org/allegro.
YOUTH HEADING SOUTH FOR MARDI GR AS High school students will be traveling to the Mobile area February 17–20 to celebrate Mardi Gras where it began.
