From the Celtic and Saxon saints whose vision was to shape he
English church, to the prophetic voices of our own day, this
splendid collection draws on over a thousand years of spiritual
writing and provides an engaging portrait of the rich diversity of
Anglican worship, doctrine and life. The classical Anglican
synthesis of scripture, reason and tradition finds various
expression in the writings of over two hundred figures including
Augustine, Hilda, Bede, Anselm, Wycliffe, Cranmer, the
seventeenth-century divines, Wesley, Newman, Evelyn Underhill,
Austin Farrer, C S Lewis, Desmond Tutu and many more. Beginning
with the roots of Anglican spirituality and the shaping of Anglican
identity, this anthology explores the Anglican understanding of
worship, the sacraments, prayer, mission, the Bible, the Church and
living as a Christian in the world. A Feast of Anglican
Spirituality celebrates the heritage of Anglicanism in all its
breadth and variety, its triumphs and its failures, its ability to
recognize other points of view and, above all, its indebtedness to
the wider Christian tradition of which it is a part.
