Noting Robert Nowell reads quick books about the new Pontiff: The Rise of Benedict XVI: The inside story of how the Pope was elected and what it means for the world, by John L. Allen; We Have a Pope! Benedict XVI, by Matthew E. Bunson D.Min.; Pope Benedict XVI: Successor to Peter, by Michael Collins; Labourer in the Vineyard: A portrait of Benedict XVI, by Greg Watts; and Choice of name: a good omen? ‘This Holy Man’: Impressions of Metropolitan Anthony, by Gillian Crow, is reviewed in the Church Times by Michael Bourdeaux. 'Gillian Crow, who worked with Metropolitan Anthony for more than ten years as his diocesan secretary, begins her account of his life a full 70 years before his birth. This is a mark of the broad sweep of the book. It is not a study of his thought or writings, but a sequential biography, full of detail. What most impresses, amid its all-round excellence, is the honesty of its portrayal of a complicated subject.' We
Need a Conversion from Being Consumers, by Richard Chartres, is reviewed
in the Church Times.
This is an edited version of the Francistide lecture given recently by the Rt Revd
Richard Chartres, Bishop of London, in St Mary Woolnoth, in the City of London.
'Francis would have been reluctant to join a "make poverty history" campaign
because he believed that "our lady Poverty" was a companion who
can lead us into profound communication with God and other creatures. But
there is all the difference in the world between the poverty that comes
from renunciation and the grinding poverty that is inflicted on so many
people in today’s world.' |

Noting English Cathedrals: A History, by Stanford Lehmberg, is reviewed in the Church Times by Robert Jeffrey. 'Great cathedrals have to be cared for and listened to if they are to work effectively; and Lehmberg teaches us that.' Evangelism in a Spiritual Age: Communicating Faith in a Changing Culture, edited by Yvonne Richmond, Rob Frost, Nick Spencer, Anne Richards, Mark Ireland and Steven Croft, and reviewed in the Church Times by Michael Hart. 'The subtitle says what it is about: "communicating faith in a changing culture". The problem is that many in the Church don't really believe the culture is changing... It is not that people have moved away from us: it is that we have not extended our religious bridges, nor built urgently needed new ones.' Episcopales Latinos.org. A new Episcopalian site for Hispanic/Latino people in the Church. Religious Identities in Britain 1660-1832, edited by William Gibson and Robert G. Ingram, is reviewed in the Church Times by Colin Podmore. History is the story of people, and the history of ideas is the story of people's ideas... the focus is on the Church of England, illuminated from within and without by studies of five dignitaries: a vicar, a Puritan, a Nonjuror, John Wesley, and a Scottish visitor (James Boswell).' |
