Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book conducts a thorough examination of the Church of England from its historical roots to modern implications for its future. Topics include the necessity of ecclesiastical reform, the ongoing threat of secularism, and the problems inherent to pluralism, as well as the non-residence of clergy. The author states that the doctrines and ordinances of the Church of England are sufficient means of grace and hope when properly administered. The difficulties the Church faces are examined as symptomatic of broader societal issues with erosion of traditional values. The author traces the effects of social change on the role of the Church in British society, and advocates for reforms that will allow it to maintain its historic purpose. The author concludes by stating that the Church of England can continue to provide the nation with much needed guidance and support, but will have to adapt and change to best meet the needs of contemporary society.
