  • A Primer on the Government of the Episcopal Church and Its Underlying Theology
    A Primer on the government of The Episcopal Church and its underlying theology offered by the Ecclesiology Committee of the House of Bishops Fall 2013 The following is an introduction to how and why The Episcopal Church came to be, beginning in the United States of America, and how it seeks to continue in “the faith once delivered to the saints” (Jude 3). Rooted in the original expansion of the Christian faith, the Church developed a distinctive character in England, and further adapted that way of being Church for a new context in America after the Revolution. The Episcopal Church has long since grown beyond the borders of the United States, with dioceses in Colombia, the Dominican Republic, Ecuador (Central and Litoral), Haiti, Honduras, Micronesia, Puerto Rico, Taiwan, Venezuela and Curacao, and the Virgin Islands, along with a Convocation of churches in six countries in Europe. In all these places, Episcopalians have adapted for their local contexts the special heritage and mission passed down through the centuries in this particular part of the Body of Christ. “Ecclesiology,” the study of the Church in the light of the self-revelation of God in Jesus Christ, is the Church’s thinking and speaking about itself. It involves reflection upon several sources: New Testament images of the Church (of which there are several dozen); the history of the Church in general and that of particular branches within it; various creeds and confessional formulations; the structure of authority; the witness of saints; and the thoughts of theologians. Our understanding of the Church’s identity and purpose invariably intersects with and influences to a large extent how we speak about God, Christ, the Spirit, and ourselves in God’s work of redemption.

Oral History is a method of collecting historical information through tape-recorded interviews between a narrator with firsthand knowledge of historically significant events and a well-informed interviewer, with the goal of preserving substantive additions to the historical record. The tape recording is transcribed, lightly edited for continuity and clarity, and reviewed by the interviewee. The corrected manuscript is bound with photographs and illustrative materials and placed in The Bancroft Library at the University of California, Berkeley, and in other research collections for scholarly use. Because it is primary material, oral history is not intended to present the final, verified, or complete narrative of events. It is a spoken account, offered by the interviewee in response to questioning, and as such it is reflective, partisan, deeply involved, and irreplaceable. ********************************* All uses of this manuscript are covered by a legal agreement between The Regents of the University of California and Robert Cromey, dated April 26, 2007.

John F. Kennedy created a sensational moment as a Roman Catholic seeking the highest public office in the United States. Various groups resistant to any Catholic president organized to increase awareness of the separation of church and state. Faced with mounting opposition based on religion, John Kennedy and his campaign team created a group designed to face the challenges surrounding the issue. Dubbed Community Relations, the team handled every aspect of the religious issue for the Kennedy team. Ultimately winning the election, John Kennedy became the

  • John-F-Kennedy-Separ
    Separating God and State: The faith of John F. Kennedy James C. Denison, Ph.D. Denison Forum on Truth and Culture www.denisonforum.org Adolf Hitler told the German clergy, "You take care of the church. I'll take care of the German people." At the time, the German population had become accustomed to the doctrine of the "two spheres": Christ is Lord of the church while the Kaiser is lord over the political sphere.1 We know the results of such spiritual bifurcation. A similar trend is at work in American culture today. For instance, a recent poll indicates that 72 percent of Americans, including 67 percent of evangelicals, believe it's permissible to disagree with church teaching on abortion. Separation of church and state has become separation of faith and state. In a nation that leads the industrialized world in teenage pregnancy, with 100,000 child pornography websites, where illegal drugs cost our country $215 billion annually, how is our spiritual bifurcation working for us? John F. Kennedy was the second Catholic candidate for president in American history. Facing vociferous opposition from Protestants amid allegations that he would be unduly influenced by the Vatican, Kennedy repeatedly stated: "I am not the Catholic candidate for President. I am the Democratic Party's candidate for President, who happens also to be a Catholic." Kennedy continued to claim that religion is personal while politics are public. This segregation allayed the fears of the voting public and constitutes his lasting effect on religion in America. Has this effect been positive or negative? How does it relate to faith and culture today? The faith of John F.
