Last week, in a truly devastatingly tragic event, the worst thing to happen in the Church of England in many years, they voted to begin trial blessing services for homosexual marriages, which are of course directly contrary to scripture. In retrospect, it is remarkable that the C of E held out...

As many of you know, I love Gloucester Cathedral: the exquisite, luminous architecture, wherein the roof of the cathedral seems to float atop curtains of stained glass, the music program, indeed, even the service of Choral Evensong composed for the cathedral by Herbert Howells is my favorite of...

In a thread recently this was posted: The Church of England was created by a man that asked the Pope for permission to disobey the bible to marry his brother's wife. The argument was that because his brother and his future wife not have sexual relations, they were not married. This was true, so...

Back in June of 2013, four years ago now, the Church of England, via its Church Mission Society, said it was exploring what it would mean to offer a church space that would appeal to New Age and Pagan seekers. The article title calls this a 'pagan church', but, more accurately, it is a church...
