'Whatever it is, evangelism is the concern of the whole Church. The trouble is that this potentially interesting observation has become vacuous, because “'evangelism' is now a fashionable catch-all word, lacking definition.'

The Spanish Inquisition, by Joseph Pérez, translated by Janet Lloyd, is reviewed in the Church Times by Alec Ryrie. 'This is a sober but extremely readable account of a grim story. Rather than providing a voyeuristic chamber of horrors, Pérez shows how Spain's pathology arose from everyday ingredients: from fear, from hunger for power, and from doctrines that many of us still believe.'

Worth Noting
Christ and the Just Society In the Thought of Augustine, by Robert Dodaro, and 'Church, State and Civil Society', by David Fergusson, are reviewed in the Church Times by John Habgood.

The Choice is Yours — Unfortunately, by David Walker, is an article in the Church Times. 'The deification of choice ignores the impact that my choices have on the options available to others.'

The Church and Mary, by R. N. Swanson, and 'A Gothic Sermon: Making a contract with the Mother of God, Saint Mary of Amiens', by Stephen Murray, are reviewed in The Church Times by Martin Warner. The Church and Mary 'is welcome because of the serious attention it pays to the often neglected place of Mary throughout the Christian tradition' ... 'Stephen Murray introduces us to an annotated and illustrated edition of a 13th-century sermon in which the energy of communication bubbles over with enthusiasm for fresh expressions of the veneration of motherhood — of Mary, of the Church, and of the Mother Church of the diocese of Amiens ... The text indicates that clergy haven’t changed, though the good news is that sermons are now generally a great deal shorter'.

Episcopal Church Network for Science, Technology, and Faith: 'Facilitates dialogue between [ECUSA] and members of the scientific, technical, and medical communities; to be an educational resource for this Church, its seminaries, and the wider Christian community; and to provide guidelines in Christian ethics for use in everyday decisions within contemporary American culture'.

The Soul of the Embryo: An Enquiry into the Status of the Human Embryo in the Christian Tradition, by David Albert Jones, is reviewed in the Church Times by Robin Gill. Jones defends 'the position that the embryo has an immortal soul from the point of conception onwards... But I suspect that it will finally convince only those already persuaded of the pro-life position.'

White Lies: Canon Collins and the Secret War Against Apartheid, by Denis Herbstein, is reviewed in the Church Times by Ronald Blythe.
