The ugly public rows over sexuality, authority and the interpretation of the Bible in the Anglican Community leave many people not caught up in internecine church conflict baffled and frustrated.- What has this bitterness got to do with the Gospel and Jesus' message of radical emancipation?
- Why is there so much fuss over a denomination that often appears a colonial hangover?
- What about the far more pressing issues of war, peace, development, environment, science and spirituality?How does such infighting impact the credibility of the Christian message in the twenty-first century?
With a short preface from Archbishop Emeritus Desmond Tutu, Fear or Freedom? takes a constructively critical look at the significance of 'Anglican wars' in the run up to (and well beyond) the much publicised 2008 Lambeth Conference, signalling some important fault lines in post-Christendom life and faith. |
