Hope for the Future: People Who Made a Difference

Alan Webster, former Dean of St Paul's, took a lively interest in people who were making a difference to the world and to the Church. Hope for the Future includes a selection of his essays, newspaper articles (particularly his contributions to the 'Credo' series in The Times), reviews and obituaries, covering four decades of enormous change in the Church in general and the Church of England in particular.

This collection encompasses a distinctive range of themes, such as:

liberalizing the Church

world justice and peace

children and young people

women in the life of the Church
