A sparkling array of leading thinkers and writers in the Church of
England bring scripture, doctrine, tradition and pastoral theology into
conversation with culture and lived experience to frame a new
understanding of sex and marriage that is both faithful to the past and
embracing of the present, and counters accusations of an ‘anything goes
liberalism’ by conservative opponents.
Moving beyond the default arguments and the use of scriptures to shore
up fixed positions, it offers a welcoming space grounded in theological
understanding. Here is a bold, fresh, positive and coherent vision for
the future.
Contributors include: Miranda Threlfall-Holmes, Barnabas Palfry, Gareth
Wardell, John Inge, Samuel Wells, Olivia Graham, Mark Chapman, Vivienne
Faull, Steven Croft, Theo Hobson, Helen King and Charlie Bell.
Hobson gained a PhD in theology at Cambridge and is the author of
several published books and writes for the Guardian, Times, Spectator
and Tablet.
