Description: --What is Anglicanism and how is it distinctive?
--Where did it come from and where is it ? --Which beliefs, values,
and practices stand at the heart of this important, global
Communion? --How can its rich heritage help it move into the
future? This book is an essential guide to the Anglican tradition
for anyone who has ever wondered what Anglicanism-the largest
Protestant denomination in the world-is all about. Now fully
updated and significantly revised, this second edition of Our
Anglican Heritage gives voice to the strong and vibrant evangelical
roots of Anglican Christianity. Events at the start of the
twenty-first century have threatened to tear the Communion apart.
The authors of this book, both Episcopal clergy, each responded to
the crisis in different ways. One, a bishop, chose to stay in the
Episcopal Church. The other chose to lead his congregation out of
the Episcopal Church and into another Anglican Province. This book
is a reflection of the strong faith and heritage they still share,
and a recommitment to the biblical principles that still undergird
and enliven Anglicanism. Endorsements: ""I very much hope that all
of you will read this excellent little book, Our Anglican Heritage.
It is clear, it is forthright, it is well written, it is pungent,
it is faithful, it is courageous."" --Rev. John R.W. Stott Rector
Emeritus, All Souls Anglican Church, ""In a way one could say that
Christ Church, Plano was built on the first edition of Our Anglican
Heritage. Ever since I read it twenty-five years ago, it has been
the staple that we recommend and give to all of our new members. In
its new edition, the authors have done it again. They have given
the church a clear and compelling account of what Anglicanism is,
where it came from, and how it can be a trusted, magnificent, and
reliable way of living out the Christian Faith."" --The Rev. David
H. Roseberry Rector, Christ Church in Plano, Texas ""The
publication of a new edition of Bishop Howe's Our Anglican Heritage
is an event to be celebrated Anglicanism can only be understood
through its history, and here is a readable, fair, and concise
account of that history. Clergy and laity alike should rejoice that
this resource is available to them in a revised and updated form.
Full marks to Bishop Howe and Dr. Pascoe for this excellent and
much needed piece of work "" --The Very Rev. Philip Turner III Vice
