The Long Exhortation (Common Prayer Tradition)
The Long Exhortation (Common Prayer Tradition)
Lesson given by the Rev. Nathan Stomberg on 5 Lent (4/3/2022).
We only recite the Long Exhortation as a congregation a couple of times over the course of the year, typically only during the season of Lent. Long though it may be (as the name implies), this beautiful prayer is packed with theology and teaches us much about how we should approach worship.
