Description: "This is one of the most thoughtful reflections on the crisis going on in the Anglican Communion in print. O'Donovan helps the reader think about the issues in terms of Christian witness and vocation and argues that the 'liberal' 'rights' paradigm is not the best framework for thinking through this issue. Be prepared to hear a theological reflection which does not conform to either the 'right' or the 'left' ideological agendas. It should also be noted that O'Donovan does not take sides on the issue either"--Amazon.com.
Notes: "The seven chapters of this book were originally published at monthly intervals between June 2006 and January 2007 on the London-based Fulcrum Web site under the partly ironic title, "Sermons on the subject of the day"...--p.vii.
