INTERVIEW: Rev. Matthew Joyner (REC) and Rev. Veitch

A fascinating interview with Rev. Joyner, his travels, his entrance and departure from Orthodoxy into the Reformed Episcopal Church. He has been the Rector at Trinity REC for about 1.5 years. Rev. Joyner discusses his past (Baptacostalism), experiences as a musician, his move to Orthodoxy, icons, the invocation of saints (heavy duty Mariolatry), denial of the penal, substitutionary atonement, denial of original sin, Pelagianism and Semi-Pelagianism, and his return to a Reformed view yet with a Prayer Book. This is a unique story in our set of interviews. Every interviewee has their own, divinely ordained history, but this one helps to understand Orthodoxy. As suspected, Rev. Joyner confirms that Orthodoxy condemns Reformed Theology. God willing, more interviews are forthcoming. This is a front seat to a man in movement. Glad for this interview.
