  • Same-Sex Marriage and Anglican Theology: a View from the Traditionalists
    ATR/93:1 Same-Sex Marriage and Anglican Theology: A View from the Traditionalists John E. Goldingay, Grant R. LeMarquand, George R. Sumner, Daniel A. Westberg* Part 1 The Social and Ecclesiastical Context Modern Western societies in North America and Europe are in- creasingly moving toward the acceptance of same-sex relationships. At first people were challenged to accept lesbian and gay partnerships on a political and legal level; but recently and more problematically, Christians are being asked to accept a redefinition of the institution of marriage itself. No longer is marriage to be regarded essentially as a bond between one man and one woman, but as a sexual relationship in which two men or two women may also be committed to each other. They ought to be recognized to have the corresponding rights of sup- port, parenting, adopting, inheriting, divorcing, and the other privi- leges and obligations that spouses in a marriage expect. We recognize that a remarkable shift in public opinion has oc- curred in the last thirty years or so in the aftermath of the so-called sexual revolution. Several European countries, including traditionally Catholic societies such as Spain, as well as a number of American states have either passed legislation to allow same-sex marriage, or have had their courts rule that restricting marriage to heterosexuals is unjust. It is not at all surprising that many Christians who live in areas where these social developments have progressed furthest should * John E. Goldingay is the David Allan Hubbard Professor of Old Testament at the School of Theology, Fuller Theological Seminary, Pasadena, California.

Ideally, these structures will continue to provide governance and increasing opportunities for learning and collaboration. Over the last eleven years, the work that was officially begun in Bedford in 2009 has blossomed, as relationships between dioceses, provinces, and other ministry partners have developed and grown. The focus of reaching a world that is broken and in pain with the love of Christ is as urgent as it has ever been. While I am a relatively new member of the Diocese of Pittsburgh, I have watched closely over the years as this diocese took a brave stand for our faith. It was the stand we were taking in Illinois, and from those early days to now, I have prayed and rooted for Pittsburgh. When I was asked to accept a nomination for Standing Committee, I did so gladly, grateful for the possibility of serving the diocese that has been an inspiration to me and so many.

  • The Grace Vine May 2013
    The Grace Vine May 2013 Rector’s Reflections The Easter message of new life, repentance, and redemption remains a sequel that continues to unfold in individual lives over the centuries. It can make our faith nerves tingle a bit to think the same stories we hear over Eastertide were told just a few days after Jesus’ friends found the empty tomb. Then a few years later…then generations later…and in the Easter season we hear again how Jesus lives and how he appeared to disciples whose fear and doubt would soon be replaced by the powerful reminder that they were witnesses; witnesses who had work to do. The disciples didn’t become perfect, they became faithful. They became changed people. So can we. The promise of renewal and resurrection leads us to Christ, especially when our gone-astray-ventures go awry and we lose our path. Jesus declared to his disciples that he would return to the Father…and he did. He promised not to leave them (or us) comfortless…and he didn’t. On Pentecost we celebrate the promised gift of the Holy Spirit as guide and comforter for all believers in all circumstances. A few hymn verses follow to remind us of the promise and joy of Easter and Pentecost. May we be ever aware of Christ’s and the Spirit’s living reminders of God’s goodness and presence. May we “continue in that holy fellowship” God’s grace and love provides, so that we, too, may do the work of faithful disciples and witnesses. “I bind unto myself today the power of God to hold and lead, his eye to watch, his might to stay, his ear to hearken to my need; the wisdom of my God to teach, his hand to guide, his shield to ward; the word of God to give me speech, his heavenly host to be my guard.” (Hymn #370 I bind unto myself today) “O Jesus, King of gentleness, do thou thyself our hearts possess that we may give thee all our days the willing tribute of our praise.

  • 17. How Did the Episcopal Church Get to Wisconsin?
    17. How Did the Episcopal Church get to Wisconsin? As is the case with most things historical there is not one simple answer to this question, because there were many people who shaped events that lead to the church we see today. So for simplicity’s sake I am going to focus on the lives of six people and the work that they did in Wisconsin. Some of it overlaps. Those six people were all priests or bishops. They are Richard Fish Cadle, Jackson Kemper, James Lloyd Breck, William Adams, John Henry Hobart Jr. and Charles Chapman Grafton. I realize that in this approach much will be missed but hopefully it will give something of the flavor of what happened. Richard Fish Cadle Cadle was born in 1796 in New York. He was educated at Columbia and graduated at the age of 17 in 1813. At that time you had to wait until the age of 21 to be ordained, so he did and began serving St. John’s Church in Salem, New Jersey. On May 20, 1824, the Domestic and Foreign Missionary Society appointed its first three domestic missionaries, one of whom was Cadle. He was sent to Detroit where he organized the first Episcopal Church in the area, St. Paul's Church on Nov. 22, 1824. Fortunately things got better for him and he was able to come to the Promised Land (Wisconsin) in 1829. He was made superintendent of an Indian mission school in Green Bay, which focused on the Oneida (many of whom are still Episcopal and worship at Church of the Holy Apostles in Oneida, WI).

  • Anglo-Catholicism in Antebellum North Carolina: Levi Silliman Ives and the Society of the Holy Cross
    Anglo-Catholicism in Antebellum North Carolina: Levi Silliman Ives and the Society of the Holy Cross By Lewis Wright He has instituted at Valle Crucis a monastic order . composed of persons bound to him by a vow of celibacy, poverty and obedience. He has given to the members, as their peculiar dress, a black cassock extending from the throat to the ankle. He allows to be placed on the altar a pyx, in which are reserved the remaining consecrated elements after a communion . there is used at Valle Crucis in a little manual of devotions . prayers to the Virgin Mary and the Saints. He has announced to two of his clergy an intention to send a “penitentiary” through the parishes in the Diocese to receive the confessions of the people.1 THESE CRITICISMS of the Rt. Rev. Levi Silliman Ives (1797-1867), bishop of North Carolina, were made in 1849 by George Edmond Badger, a prominent layman, lawyer and United States senator from Raleigh, North Carolina. Several accounts have been written of the life of Bishop Ives, a cradle Presbyterian who converted to the Episcopal Church. Ives served as the second bishop of North Carolina (1831-1852) and spent the last fifteen years of his life as a Roman Catholic layman (1852-1867).2 These accounts have included few details of the Society of the Holy Cross and of the bishop’s beloved mission-monastery outpost in the wilderness of the North Carolina mountains, which he called Valle Crucis Abbey.3 On an evening in late October or early November, 1847, at St.
