A group of conservative evangelicals presented a “covenant” to Archbishop Rowan Williams on December 12. The text of the covenant is available from Anglican Mainstream. While I can sympathise with the authors’ desire to ensure that liberal bishops don’t undermine the authority of the gospel, I can’t help but agree with Bishops Tom Wright and Pete Broadbent who believe that this isn’t going to help the Evangelical cause, and if anything, will cause further disunity in the Church of England.
There are lots of opinions circulating the web on this issue at the mo…and love it or hate it, the good ol’ C of E needs our prayer more than ever!
