Whatever happened to dialogue and discussion? It seems that much that passes as interchange has disappeared, with the online world being the biggest killing field. Almost everywhere you go looking…

As we have noted several times in recent months, the final text of the Anglican Covenant assigns important tasks defined in Section 4 to a committee designated the “Standing Committee…

We are dismayed that the Communion Office is either unable or unwilling to provide even the most basic information to those who have raised serious concerns: what information was provided…

The point of the Covenant is to secure the borders of conformity and perhaps create a status for those who find such territory too narrow which does not drive them…

John Rees’ recent clarification on the new Anglican Consultative Council raises disturbing questions on the continuing viability of the Anglican Communion.

I think that the Assumption is scandalous to many not because of Mary, but because of Jesus. It is scandalous that Jesus could have risen from the dead. Surely, the…

The Continuing Indaba Project, as its organizers have described it, is geared toward “decision making by consensus,” in a way adaptable to the Anglican Communion. In particular, it is about…

It should be clear that the Covenant, in this regard, does not represent the invention of a new set of dynamics. Rather, as has been the claim from the beginning…

We are stuck in the past. We just cannot envision Anglicanism without its trappings and so our time and money are spent on propping them up. Often our Victorian piles…

Leigh Edwards, The Living Church’s first junior fellow, is in Canterbury attending a two-week conference for young seminarians and clergy. This is one of her posts on what she is…

The Episcopal Church’s Executive Council began its spring meeting on June 16 by focusing on the church as a missionary society fostering both national and international partnerships, even amid inter-Anglican…

That this is the myth by which the Presiding Bishop is operating is shown by her allusion to colonialism. This is the other governing metaphor of the letter, and in…

When it came to living out my faith, I found that if the center of my discipleship is communion with God and each other through Christ, then being right was…

Any Anglican student enrolled in a master’s degree program (M.Div., M.A., or equivalent diploma; not Th.M. or other secondary degrees) in any seminary of the Anglican Communion (or accredited ecumenical…

The present Archbishop of Canterbury is attacked in some places for his alleged paternalistic, colonial pretensions and in others because he has not exerted a sufficient paternalism in his efforts…

Last Thursday I sent letters to members of the Inter Anglican ecumenical dialogues who are from the Episcopal Church informing them that their membership of these dialogues has been discontinued.

What should be the ecclesial consequences for Anglican churches that have consciously rejected the “mind of the Communion” during this past decade? … The archbishop’s Pentecost letter has now begun…

It is God who brings about his own Kingdom, in his way and in his time. The Church’s vocation is to announce that Kingdom and model it, but not to…

Thursday, June 03, 2010 at 6:03 pm
I have two great worries about the content of the PB’s Pastoral Letter. The first is that she paints a big picture which is an assertive statement of alternative history.
