New Exile, A? the Future of Anglicanism
Muriel PorterPaperback 2015-03-01
Publisher Description
Over the past few decades, seismic shifts have changed the contours of the Anglican Church in Australia. Numbers of rural dioceses are scarcely viable; major city centres are struggling under the pressures of urban growth and multiculturalism. Harsh conservative forces are threatening the historic inclusive comprehensiveness of Anglicanism, partly in reaction to the ordination of women. Fear and anxiety about the churchs future is crippling the leaderships response. A New Exile? documents what has been happening, and poses the difficult question: what is the future for Anglicanism in Australia?
