What's New This Week

ALL THE NEW URLS we receive each week are here. We list two (sometimes three) weeks’ worth, cycling the old ones off each week. As they disappear from this page, you'll find the links moved to their natural home categories in our resource pages.

If you can't find something that was once here, you can look in our archives or try the AO search engine. It searches our entire site and also many important official Anglican sites worldwide.

Ancient Treasures and the Dead Sea Scrolls, an exhibition of priceless archaeological finds that chronicles more than 1,000 years in the evolution of Judaism and early Christianity, is open at the Canadian Museum of Civilization for a limited run. The exhibition examines historical events, religious ritual and daily life in biblical times. It features more than 100 objects, including portions of three of the Dead Sea Scrolls, one of which is among the oldest biblical manuscripts ever found.

Journals and magazines
The Revealer: A new ejournal published by New York University's Center for Religion and Media and the Pew Charitable Trusts, with Jeff Sharlet as its primary editor (Jeff was one of the founders of Killing the Buddha). The mainstay is a daily critique of press coverage of religion; the site also features essays, reports, and forums. The mandate is to address the press, and, if possible, help improve the generally dismal coverage given religion by primarily US news organizations. [Ed: We think The Revealer is one of the best new websites in years.]
