  • Bishop J C Ryle Churchman 113/3 1999
    Bishop J C Ryle Churchman 113/3 1999 Eric Russell Liverpool became a diocese in 1880. For over 300 years south-west Lancashire had been part of the diocese of Chester, but with the rapid growth in population due to the industrial revolution, the building of the railways and the development of the vast docks system on the banks of the Mersey, voices were raised advocating a further division of the ancient diocese of Chester and the creation of a new diocese centred on Liverpool. Earlier in the century the diocese of Ripon had been reconstituted and Chester lost its Yorkshire territory. Another sub- division was made in 1847 when the diocese of Manchester was created to meet the religious needs of south Lancashire. Chester was again reduced in size when the counties of Cumberland and Westmoreland were transferred in 1856 to Carlisle. The diocese of Chester over the years had been considerably reduced in area, but due to the movement of workers to south-west Lancashire to meet the demands of industry, the population was constantly increasing and making it more and more difficult for the Church to fulfil her ministry. Victorian Liverpool Liverpool in the closing decades of the nineteenth century was fast becoming the hub of trade and commerce in the north-west of England. Manufacturers in the great industrial centres of Lancashire and Yorkshire exported their goods through the port. Iron and steel, machinery, textiles, manufactured goods and pottery were among the numerous items exported, and grain, raw cotton, sugar-cane, tobacco, timber and meat were some of the imported goods unloaded at the docks.

  • 'Robin Greenwood Is Now One of the Most Experienced and Effective
    ‘Robin Greenwood is now one of the most experienced and effective guides to transforming congregations and their communities. His wis- dom is deeply and imaginatively biblical, centred on God and God’s generous blessing, and utterly realistic about the Church and our society. He draws readers into the fullest life possible: following Jesus, living in praise and becoming a blessing. A book full of promise for the local church.’ Professor David Ford, Regius Professor of Divinity University of Cambridge ‘This is without doubt a book for our times: essential reading and essential practice for all who yearn for a better way for churches than endless initiatives, mission statements and strategies.’ The Rt Revd James Bell, Bishop of Ripon ‘Robin Greenwood has done it again. Sharing God’s Blessing offers a creative, thoughtful, clear and accessible approach to being the people of God in transitional and challenging times. It is a book rich in practical wisdom, born of seasoned experience and theological reflec- tion. There is something for everybody and it will be particularly helpful, stimulating, and a source of blessing for the local church.’ The Rt Revd Professor Stephen Pickard, Executive Director Australian Centre for Christianity and Culture Charles Sturt University, Barton, Australia ‘In bringing insights and practices from participatory and appreciative inquiry to church renewal, Robin Greenwood provides a practical and theologically rich approach to conversation in church communities. Conversation in these modes allows for individual and communal appreciation of God’s blessing to be shared and to be the lenses through which practical issues in a local church are examined, explored and addressed.
