The Three Streams

The Beauty and Balance of the Charismatic Episcopal Church

By: Geoffrey Schmitt

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

This book is the story of a personal and spiritual journey through the three great streams of the Church — sacramental, evangelical, and charismatic. Beginning as a cradle Episcopalian, I trace my path into the priesthood of the Episcopal Church and then onward to finding my true home in the Charismatic Episcopal Church (CEC). Along the way, I invite you to walk beside me — through traditions, worship, struggles, and renewal — to see how each stream carries unique gifts that together form the fullness of faith. What I discovered is what the early Christians simply called “normal Christianity”: worship centered on Christ, rooted in the sacraments, alive in the Spirit, and proclaiming the Good News. My hope is that this journey will not only tell my story but encourage you to embrace the whole richness of the Body of Christ.
