What do we really appeal to when\u003cbr\u003eattempting to decide matters of doctrine, worship, ministry or ethics? The\u003cbr\u003edebate is very much alive today, between Evangelical, Liberal and Catholic\u003cbr\u003eAnglicans around the world. This proposed book focuses on the understanding of authority in Anglican theology.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt looks at the way that\u003cbr\u003eAnglican theologians, in the past and today, have developed their theories of\u003cbr\u003eauthority in relation to burning issues.
