(Psalms 73; 86:11–13; Proverbs 3; 1 Corinthians 9:23–27; Colossians 3:1–4; 1 Peter 1:13–19)\nWe will conclude today with A Collect for Peace in Morning Prayer found on page 23 of the Book of Common Prayer (2019).\nIf you would like to buy or download To Be a Christian, head to anglicanchurch.net/catechism.\nProduced by Holy Trinity Anglican Church in Madison, MS.\nOriginal music from Matthew Clark.
