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.

Worth Noting

The Reformation Continued. The Revd Dr Giles Fraser gave the University Sermon at The University Church, Oxford on 4 May 2004. 'For the message the Church has given to gay Christians is the message Luther came to see as inherently abusive: God does not love you as you are - you need to be completely and fundamentally - and perhaps even impossibly - different before He will love you.' The sermon can be downloaded in Word format.

A Prayer for Uncertain Times, Shaun Casey; reviewed in Sojouners Magazine by Elisabeth Sifton: Thirty years after Reinhold Niebuhr's death, his daughter’s powerful account of his life, goes a long way to explaining this Christian social ethicist's hold on the imagination.

William Cecil and Episcopacy, 1559-1577, by Brett Usher. Reviewed by Diarmaid MacCulloch
Why we have bishops: It has to do with Elizabethan finances, says Diarmaid MacCulloch.
