Practical not preachy
Walk in Love sets the right tone for your faith journey. If you are new to the Episcopal faith or brushing up on the fundamentals, this book is the perfect guide to "Basic Beliefs", "Sacraments" and more. I loved the straightforward style and easy-to-understand faith principles. Take your time with this one. There is much to contemplate. My favorite parts of the book were the reflection questions and actions at the end of each chapter, which will deepen your understanding or provide a path forward for those looking to explore the topic further.

A great intro to the Episcopal Church and helped me grow my faith
I am new to the Episcopalian faith and found this book to be informative and easy to understand. I read this after finishing reading "The Anglican Way" by Thomas McKenzie and I like this book more.

Easy reading Episcopal beliefs
Easy read, has nice points about the Episcopal tradition. Perhaps leans a bit to Anglo catholic for my taste in some descriptions. Good for leading a confirmation class.

Fantastic introduction to episcopal church
Iโm new to the episcopal church and this is an excellent book. It was recommended by the priest and I see why. Really helpful for learning.

Great Book
The book is great. We are using it in a book study for a group at our church. All but two of us have been Episcopalians for numbers of years. This book has been fun and educational about things we knew about, but the book goes into great depth on why we do some things the way they are done with the sacraments. Highly recommend this book for Episcopalians and others who want to know more about the sacraments in our church.

What are those Episcopalians up to? Come and See
This is an excellent presentation of episcopal beliefs and practices as one might expereince them. That experience often begins by walking into a prayer service where the congregation is using The Book of Common Prayer for a baptism or a Sunday morning service or a wedding. One walks deeper into the Anglican tradition's beliefs, church structure, its spirituality and practices. The writing is very clear and moving. Each chapter begins with a prayer from the BCP drawing one prayerfully into the topic. There are good discussion and reflection questions after each chapter. It concludes with good resources to deepen one's learning. The title Walk in Love comes from what one often hears at a Sunday eucharist. The authors walk the reader through their book in a very enlightening and inviting way
