WHENEVER WE LEARN about a web site that we haven't previously listed, we 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 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

In the sight of God . . . and the caterers: In the Church Times, Pat Ashworth explores why there's no better place for nuptials than the nave.

Opportunities for Christians in 'post-secular age': In The Times (London), Richard Chartres, Bishop of London, looks for the bright side in a post-Christian age, commenting 'For those of us who are believers, this is a huge opportunity. It is a very exciting time to be a servant of Jesus Christ'.

Toward a Better Way: 'Conservatives cannot afford to play a semantic game that salutes catholic order as a concept (as in the Anglican Communion's nascent covenant) but rejects it in daily practice because expensive property is at stake. [...] Both sides depict themselves as victims who have been forced into lawsuits by malevolent forces. Both sides sink millions of dollars into legal fees, even while loudly proclaiming how much they would rather spend these funds on Christian mission.' An editorial article from The Living Church (Milwaukee) worth reading.

Towards a Pauline education that is free: Ruth Gledhill interviews Martin Stephen, High Master of St Paul's School for Boys. 'Maybe the answer is not to abolish faith schools but to change them so they can operate a less exclusive admissions process.'

Worth Noting
