Summary
"This book offers a detailed plan for resolving the present crisis over homosexuality in the Anglican Church, prompted by the appointment of openly gay bishops in the USA and England, and the blessing of a gay partnership in Canada. Tracing the roots of the crisis back to the foundations of Anglicanism over four centuries ago, [the author] shows why ancient divisions have grown wider in recent decades. He argues that the two sides now need separate episcopal arrangements - yet both sides have much to gain by remaining together in a single body"--Page 4 of cover.
