  • Doing the Lambeth Walk
    DOING THE LAMBETH WALK The request We, the Bishops, Clergy and Laity of the Province of Canada, in Triennial Synod assembled, desire to represent to your Grace, that in consequence of the recent decisions of the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council in the well-known case respecting the Essays and Reviews, and also in the case of the Bishop of Natal and the Bishop of Cape Town, the minds of many members of the church have been unsettled or painfully alarmed; and that doctrines hitherto believed to be scriptural, undoubtedly held by the members of the Church of England and Ireland, have been adjudicated upon by the Privy Council in such a way as to lead thousands of our brethren to conclude that, according to this decision, it is quite compatible with membership in the Church of England to discredit the historical facts of Holy Scripture, and to disbelieve the eternity of future punishment1 So began the 1865 letter from the Canadians to Charles Thomas Longley, Archbishop of Canterbury and Primate of All England. The letter concluded In order, therefore, to comfort the souls of the faithful, and reassure the minds of wavering members of the church, … we humbly entreat your Grace, …to convene a national synod of the bishops of the Anglican Church at home and abroad, who, attended by one or more of their presbyters or laymen, learned in ecclesiastical law, as their advisers, may meet together, and, under the guidance of the Holy Ghost, take such counsel and adopt such measures as may be best fitted to provide for the present distress in such synod, presided over by your Grace.

  • Mountain Sky Area of the United Methodist Church I Write to You As a Brother in Christ, and a Bishop in the Episcopal Churc
    To: Mountain Sky Area of The United Methodist Church I write to you as a brother in Christ, and a Bishop in the Episcopal Church. I am not a member of your church (although I attended a small Methodist church with my grandmother), so I hope you won’t think me presumptuous if I share a few thoughts with you about the upcoming decisions re: Bishop Karen Oliveto. As a Bishop, I know well the tension between the stewardship of the church and the call of the Gospel. As a Bishop, it is my solemn calling to receive the 2,000 years of teaching and wisdom of the Church, and to ensure that it is passed on intact to the next generation. A second, implied responsibility is preservation of the institution. In my decade of serving as the Bishop of New Hampshire, I learned and came to believe that in order to be faithful to each of those responsibilities, I had to be true to their meaning and intention, rather than their literal words. Often, I found that in order to follow the command to love my neighbor, I had to take some risks with the institution. Our faith is a living, breathing thing – not an unchanging set of beliefs, unresponsive to what God is teaching us along the way. There was a time when many people in your denomination and mine used Holy Scripture to justify slavery, forbid interracial marriage, and denigrate women as inferior to men. We now look at those expressions of the historic “faith” as cruel misperceptions of God’s will.

  • The Anglican Debacle: Roots and Patterns
    The Anglican Debacle: Roots and Patterns No Golden Age The first thing to note about the crisis the Anglican Communion is facing today is that it has been coming for a very long time. I remember almost twenty years ago reading an article by Robert Doyle in The Briefing entitled ‘No Golden Age’.1 (It’s shocking that it is actually so long ago!) The gist of the article was that the idea of a golden age of Anglicanism, in which biblical patterns of doctrine and practice were accepted by the majority, is nothing but an illusion. Biblical Christianity has always struggled under the Anglican umbrella. At some times it did better than at others, but there was never a time when evangelical Anglicanism, even of the more formal prayer book kind, was uniformly accepted or endorsed by the ecclesiastical hierarchy. Latimer, Ridley and Cranmer were, after all, burnt at the stake with the consent of most of the rest of the bishops in Mary’s church. The Puritans who stayed within the Church of England suffered at the hands of Elizabeth I, and William Laud and others made life increasingly difficult for them after Elizabeth’s death. The re-establishment of the Church of England following the restoration of the monarchy in 1660 was never a determined return to the Reformed evangelical version of Archbishop Cranmer, but a compromise designed to exclude anything that resembled Puritanism. Wesley was hunted out of the established church. Whitfield had to preach in the open air when pulpits were closed to him. However, the real seeds of the problem we now face lie in the nineteenth century.

  • Interview with John L
    Interview with John L. Harrison, Jr., Esquire, by Clark Groome, for the Episcopal Diocese of Pennsylvania Oral History Project, North Wales, Pennsylvania, November 14, 2013. CLARK GROOME: All right. You grew up as an Episcopalian? JOHN HARRISON: Yes. CG: And where did you start your life as an Episcopalian? JH: I lived in Bryn Mawr when I was born, and my family went to the Church of the Redeemer, and I was baptized there, probably in 1936, by the then rector, Canon Earp. CG: E-A-R-P? JH: E-A-R-P. CG: Okay. And then, as a kid, were you active in the church? JH: Not really. I would say that my family were people that went to church when there was a family funeral, or a wedding. And I didn’t really become very active, although by the time I was ten or twelve years old my mother thought that my brother and I should go to Sunday school wherever we lived. And typically we would be taken and left and picked up later. CG: Right. And you were confirmed, I assume? JH: I was confirmed in, I think, 1949, at the Church of the Redeemer in Bryn Mawr. Excuse me—at the Church of the Messiah in Gwynedd. Roughly, then—I could get the exact dates, if that’s important. CG: I think maybe you have. I think you may have given them to me. It’s not important. JH: But at that particular point in my growing up, we were living in Montgomeryville, Pennsylvania, and we went to church, by then, fairly regularly, at the Church of the Messiah in Gwynedd, where my HARRISON 2 parents had been married in 1934.

  • Europadisc February 2008 List
    FEBRUARY 2008 LIST See inside for valid dates Dear Customer You will no doubt have read the speculation surrounding the EMI situation and the financial difficulties they face in today’s rapidly changing market. This is by no means unique to them. In this digital age, one wonders just how the record companies will meet the challenges brought about by ‘downloading’ and consequently the reduction in the numbers of music CDs being bought worldwide. In the classical music market, there remains amongst most buyers a requirement for not only the music - in high quality sound to be played in the comfort of the listening environment - but also the material that goes with it. This would suggest that the current CD complete with libretti/booklet format will be with us for some time yet. However, monetary pressures do mean that the funds available for new classical recordings, particularly large scale works, are declining, leading to a constant search for the ‘re-cycling’ of material previously recorded and issued. So here’s the good news. Whilst this development has its detractors, it does mean that we can enjoy, often at a bargain price, the work of truly great artists in a new light and with the benefit of enhanced sound quality and illuminating background material. The recent re-issues featuring Karajan, Pavarotti, Callas, and offerings on the Lyrita and Naxos Historical labels amply illustrate the point. So, enjoy the fruits of the ‘financial squeeze’ whilst you can - there may never be a better time! Mark, Richard & Mike NAXOS OFFER £4.00 per disc - see inside! DON’T FORGET - UK Carriage is FREE over £30 Please note: American Express From January 1st 2008, we will no longer be accepting payment by American Express.
