For evangelical Anglicans who grow weary
of the vital battles over women’s ministry
and sexuality in synods and elsewhere, the
2014 ReNew conference (22–23 September)
was a great encouragement and inspiration.
It is not that the necessary task of contending for biblical truth was ignored, but
that this was seen within a bigger context.
That bigger context is the work of pioneering, establishing and securing healthy local
Anglican churches.
The Anglican Roman Catholic International Commission (ARCIC) is at the heart of attempts to tackle the split between Catholics and Anglicans.
Mark Santer, the Bishop of Birmingham, who was co-chairman of the Commission that produced the latest report entitled 'The Gift of Authority', is quoted as saying: 'the dialogue between Anglicans and Roman Catholics is only one stream in the wider river of ecumenical dialogue. The issue of authority comes up sooner or later in every dialogue which addresses itself seriously to the questions of communion and authority.'
