Then came the political economy, the knowledge economy, and the information economy. Now, it seems, we have the attention economy. The notion, which goes back to the 1990s, is that nowadays people compete for attention as much as for money or knowledge. According to the pundits, attention has become a currency: it has scarcity value and endless attraction. As with money, only the naïve or incapable (or the truly wise) can resist its lure. In the digital age, to be a winner in the attention economy requires constant tweeting, blogging, and updating one’s status on Facebook; a hugely time-consuming business.

  • FRIENDS AGM 2016 in September 76 Members Attended the AGM 2016
    CHAIRMAN’S e BULLETIN OCTOBER 2016 Coventry Cathedral has had a profound influence on my life. I joined the Cathedral community in 1962 as a teenager. I was brought up in a Christian family in the non-conformist tradition. Joining the Cathedral community introduced me to ways of putting my faith into practical use in the world. Through the Cathedral I met my wife, Jane, and we were married there in November 1970. Jane had been a member of the congregation from an even earlier age – attending worship when the undercroft served as the Chapel of the Cross. Later our two boys both gave and both gained from their membership of the Cathedral Choir, which provided them with training and experiences that they still value today. Since its consecration in 1962 Coventry Cathedral with its ministry of reconciliation has touched the lives of many thousands of people across the world. Today it is an honour for me to serve as Chairman of the Friends of Coventry Cathedral – an organisation that unites members in support of both the Cathedral building and its ministry. Coventry Cathedral changed my life. My hope for the future is that working together we can ensure that the message of the architecture and ministry of the Cathedral can reach out, touching and changing the lives of many more people long into the future. Martin R. Williams #################### FRIENDS AGM 2016 In September 76 members attended the AGM 2016. A number of them travelled considerable distances to be present, which is greatly appreciated. The meeting was followed by a fascinating talk by Frances Spalding (left), an arts historian who has many published works on 20th century artists, including a major study on the lives of John Piper and his wife.

  • Evangelicalism: the Latest State of the Party
    Evangelicalism: The Latest State of the Party COLIN BUCHANAN I wrote ten years ago, in the first issue of Anvil, about the 'state of the party'. I make no bones about it being a kind of celebration of both evangelicalism on the one hand, and of Anvil, just being forged itself out of some great heat, on the other. I half-cherished at that point a hope of writing something larger about the development of evangelicalAnglicanism in the twentieth century. So my seeing of recent history in terms of successive waves of types of evangelicals was part of that larger analysis in which I was registering to myself an interest. The desire to write a bigger book has now left me. It may be that other literary objectives have replaced it. But it is also true that a great gap has been abundantly filled by other books, and to that extent the very task of reviewing the past of evangelicals has changed since 1984.1 So where have we gone in the last ten years? Here is my report: Firstly, in broad terms evangelicals have developed in and with charis­ matic developments generally, and their ordinands in particular have 1 The following publications of the last ten years should be noted: RandleManwaring,FromContro~ytoCoexistence:EvangelicalsintheChurchofEngland 1914-1980 (Cambridge University Press, 1985) is a225-page hardback, of which 150pages deal with the postwar movement. There were three reviews of this in Anvil Vol. 3 no. 3 -and my own was the most brutal, though Michael Saward ran me dose. I called it 'a book of newspaper clippings, kept in an uncertain filing system, and larded over with personal memories (so I guess) and some random reading'.

  • Bishop Colin Bennetts
    Colin Bennetts 1940 - 2013 Bishop Colin died at home on Wednesday 10 July 2013 having been diagnosed with a brain tumour twenty-two months earlier. Life and ministry before Coventry Colin James Bennetts was born in 1940. He spent his early years in Cornwall and London, being educated at Battersea Grammar School. He was an exhibitioner at Jesus College, Cambridge where he read Modern and Medieval Languages and was awarded an MA. He also studied Theology at Ridley Hall, Cambridge. He met his wife, Veronica, while studying. They were both members of the Cambridge University Musical Society and sang a performance of Benjamin Britten’s War Requiem in 1963 (a work that had been commissioned the year before to mark the consecration of the new Coventry Cathedral.) Colin and Veronica were married in 1965 and were to have four children during their forty-eight years of married life (Duncan, Katie, Jonny and Anna). They were also blessed with almost enough grandchildren for a football team. He was initially drawn to church by hearing the organ being played from across the road as a child. He then served the church for over thirty years before moving to Coventry as: Curate at St Stephen’s Church, Tonbridge (1965 - 1969); Curate at St Aldate’s Church, Oxford and Chaplain to Oxford Pastorate (1969 - 1973); Chaplain to Jesus College, Oxford (1973 - 1980); Vicar of St Andrew’s Church, Oxford (1980 - 1990), and from 1984, Area Dean of Oxford; Canon Residentiary of Chester Cathedral and Director of Ordinands for Chester Diocese (1990 - 1994); Area Bishop of Buckingham (1994 - 1998).

  • Communion Before Confirmation
    Discussion Papers Admission of Baptized Children to Communion before Confirmation Contents The Children‘s Bread œ Children & Holy Communion Robert M E Paterson 1 Admission Of Children To Holy Communion Before Confirmation Rt Revd Colin Bennetts 13 Communion Before Confirmation (& Appendices 1-3) 16 Ashley Wilson God Lives Under the Bed 39 - 2 - THE CHILDREN‘S BREAD Children & Holy Communion Robert M.E. Paterson 1991-2001 INTRODUCTION This booklet began life many years ago when studying for a thesis on what I then thought was the uninspiring subject of catechisms. That research led to an aside about the training of children and young people in the Faith of Christ, their admission to the Sacrament of Holy Communion and the nature and role of confirmation, something which interested me greatly because of my pastoral work with young people. In 1984 the Church in Wales issued clerics, parishes and deaneries with questionnaires entitled Members of One Body, in an attempt to initiate discussion about the nurture of children in the Church. I was vicar of a parish where the P.C.C. took the challenge seriously and set up a series of study sessions to look at principles, to consider parish policy and, directly from the experience of the lay people, to press for the separation of admission to Communion from Confirmation. In the 1980‘s some parishes had started to implement elements of the various schemes but some failed because they were not formally approved and appraised, so, when push came to shove, they lacked authority. We, therefore, pestered for an approved pilot scheme which was granted in 1991.
