WHENEVER WE LEARN about a web site that we haven't previously listed, we'll note it here. Sometimes such sites are brand new and sometimes they have been around for a while without our having noticed. 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. We do not mention on this page remakes of sites that are already in our listings.

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. If you still can't find it, please let us know.

If you would like your website listed at Anglicans Online, please use this form to tell us about it.

Worth Noting
Bees at Lambeth: Christopher Howse writes for the Telegraph (London). 'The bees are back at Lambeth Palace. Dr Rowan Williams, the Archbishop of Canterbury, sought out experts to set up hives in its grounds shortly after his appointment, and now there are 10.'

Evolving Judaism and Anglicanism: Rabbi Elizabeth Tikvah Sarah for the Guardian (London). 'It seems to me, as a Progressive Jew, that Anglicanism now stands at a crossroads. It is ironic that the Church of England, founded by an English monarch determined to wrest power and authority from Rome, should find it so hard to challenge its established power structures and recreate itself anew today. But Henry XIII [sic!] created a schism in the church.' It's a bit devastating to see a reference to Henry XIII in an otherwise interesting article—Ed.

Worth Noting
Anglican Angst: Barbara Bradley Hagerty reports for American National Public Radio.

Christians read the handwritten word differently: Geoffrey Rowell writes for the Times (London) on biblical interpretation. 'For the Christian the scriptures point to Christ, and, as well as being read and heard publicly in the worship of the Church, they are to be used and pondered on reflectively.'

Henry Chadwick, RIP: The Guardian (London) carries this obituary of the learned priest-scholar Henry Chadwick (1920-2008). 'there can be no doubt that Henry will be remembered as one of the most influential and admired Anglicans of the century, in church and academy alike'.

Whither the Promotion of Christian Knowledge?: 'Bookshops that the Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge used to run in cathedral cities are bare, desolate, a dwelling-place for dragons, an astonishment, and an hissing.' Christopher Howse writes for the Telegraph (London).
