Being RKP 
This is great, Ryan. I didn’t know we had the idea of mystagogy in our tradition (except before the Reformation…)
When I get called I want to have mystagogy as the root of all education programs. I hope that the place I am called is not afraid of being too catholic.
I love the feel of this. I also recognize the significant shift this represents from “professing our faith” in a few word answers to membership questions. We will do well to go deep. Thanks
