A fresh perspective on how liturgy can support social justice work
Proclaim! is an exploration of Episcopal liturgy from a black, queer, millennial perspective, with an eye toward proclamation and justice. Part memoir, part history, part biblical studies, and part practical theology, Proclaim! suggests that the politics of our liturgical tradition is the ground from which we can engage in the justice work that our world needs. Each chapter explores theology, a biblical story, and the real-world practice of evangelism and mission. The liturgy can serve as the theological well from which we might draw wisdom to engage the issues of justice, equity, and compassion in the world today. The question is not whether or not to engage politics; rather, the question is: whose politics are being reflected?
Furthermore, what shape might our lives take if we took our worship of God seriously? People who are curious about what justice looks like in the Church or who are seeking new resources to sustain their work will be affirmed in Halley’s book.
The Rev'd Marcus George Halley serves as the Dean of Formation for the Episcopal Church in Connecticut as well as Priest-in-Charge of the Church of the Holy Spirit in West Haven, Connecticut. Prior to serving the Episcopal Church in Connecticut, the Rev'd. Halley served as rector of Saint Paul's Church in Minneapolis and as Missioner for Evangelism for the Episcopal Church in Minnesota. A 2015 graduate of the School of Theology at Sewanee: the University of the South, he has returned to his alma mater to pursue a Doctor of Ministry, focusing his studies on liturgy and discipleship as the seedbed for revival and renewal. His vocational interests lie at the intersection of mission, liturgy, discipleship, and justice. He is the author of Proclaim! as well as other essays and publications which can be found in multiple outlets including Church Publishing, Sparkhouse Publishing, Sewanee Theological Review, and more.
