Episode The Ballot and the Gospel Cover

The Ballot and the Gospel

The Ballot and the Gospel While renewing his driver’s license online, Marcus Halley lingers over a question about updating voter registration which sparks his exploration of Christian faith, voting rights, and how to live faithfully without surrendering the gospel to partisan identity. Drawing on his religious upbringing, family stories, and political formation in college, he argues that voting rights are primarily about human dignity. The Church's work in our time is to form disciples marked by courage, humility, compassion, and justice. In a moment shaped by January 6, weakened Voting Rights Act protections, and eroding democratic norms, he urges moral witness rooted in love rather than fear. 00:00 DMV Question Sparks Pause 02:25 Roots in Black Struggle 06:33 The Bible Is Political 12:03 Why Voting Rights Matter 19:55 Returning to the DMV Question 21:57 Gratitude and Farewell This is a public episode.

Episode Cameron Nations on Discernment, Vocation, and Becoming Human Cover

Cameron Nations on Discernment, Vocation, and Becoming Human

Cameron Nations on Discernment, Vocation, and Becoming Human In this episode of Everyday Liturgist, Marcus Halley interview Cameron Nation, Canon for Vocations and Community Engagement in the Diocese of Alabama. Together they draw the wisdom of Rowan Williams, Marcus's experience of public discernment in the Western Massachusetts bishop election, and Cameron's experience cultivating leaders in Alabama to reflect on the church as a prayerful community of mutual discernment and grace-filled giftedness. They discuss discernment as ongoing, communal, and transformative, not mere decision-making, and critique consumer approaches to ministry. The episode closes by reframing vocation as learning “to be” and reflect God’s love and joy rather than chasing happiness, inviting the question: “Who would you have me be?”00:00 Introduction 03:15 Meet Cameron Nations 04:40 Interview with Cameron Nations 08:00 Discernment is about clarity not ordination 17:40 What Discernment Means 21:39 Discernment and Discipleship 28:14 Universal Christian Vocation 35:48 Young Adults Seek Meaning 42:36 Gratitude and Closing 45:23 Reflection 53:00 Closing Gratitude and Blessing This is a public episode.

Episode I Give Up Cover

I Give Up

In this episode, Marcus Halley responds to a graduating student’s spiritual anxiety by asserting that surrender is the door to the spiritual life. Marcus shares that we all have a common experience of deep hunger: for meaning, connection, and love. He then contrasts trying to control God through formulas and practices with learning to surrender to God by cultivating practices of silence and listening. Drawing on Howard Thurman’s “A Seed Upon the Wind,” Marcus describes surrender as a long inner struggle that leads to a new life oriented toward God’s purposes. He suggests practices like community, contemplative prayer, spiritual direction, and gratitude as ways of embodying spiritual surrender.

Episode Easter is more than Brunch Cover

Easter is more than Brunch

In this episode of Everyday Liturgist, Marcus Halley shares an Easter Sunday sermon from Trinity College Chapel. Marcus frames human beings as God’s image-bearers called into partnership with God against the rebellious forces bent toward injustice and death. He argues that Jesus’ resurrection is not a return to normal life but the first sign of God’s new creation where domination ends and justice reigns. Christians respond faithfully by daily choosing to follow Christ in acts of love, humility, generosity, and justice, resisting systems that dehumanize. 00:00 Introduction 01:24 Sermon: Easter and the Christian Life 14:34 Reflection 20:59 Gratitude Practice and Final Blessing This is a public episode.

Episode The Resurrection and the Life Cover

The Resurrection and the Life

In this episode, Marcus Halley shares a sermon he gave on March 22, 2026 at St. Peter’s Episcopal Church in Oxford, Connecticut. Using John’s story of the Raising of Lazarus, he explores how to face real grief while holding the church’s theology of life, echoing the Book of Common Prayer: “life is changed, not ended.” He distinguishes Lazarus’s temporary return to mortal life from Jesus’ resurrection, which ends death’s dominion, and urges Christians to live as if life leads through death by choosing love, prayer, generosity, and hope over prejudice, cynicism, and greed. 00:00 Introduction 03:28 Sermon: I am the Resurrection and the Life 14:52 Reflection 20:24 Closing Gratitude and Final Thoughts Dean Andrew McGowan's Substack, "Andrew's Version": https://abmcg.substack.com/ [https://abmcg.substack.com/] This is a public episode.
