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
Anglican Covenant Study Guide.

The material was prepared by the Anglican Communion Working Group, chaired by Bishop George Bruce.

Living Legacy. 'Holy Trinity Cathedral is quiet save for the shuffle of shoes and clicking of tourists' cameras. Allan Davidson stands beneath the soaring pillars of the chancel and describes how the Parnell landmark's architecture reflects church history.' From The Aucklander.

Orwell vs God: A very Christian atheist. In The Spectator, Robert Gray examines how, in Orwell's view, 'Christianity was at once necessary and unbelievable . . . Yet, like many English public schoolboys afflicted by religious doubt, Orwell retained a weak and wavering affection for Anglicanism. At his prep school, he recalled, he had believed in God, even while hating Jesus; after all, he had been directed "to be at once a Christian and a social success, which is impossible"'.

Turbulent Priests? The Archbishop of Canterbury in Contemporary English Politics, by Daniel Gover: 'Covering issues as wide ranging as asylum, criminal justice, military conflict and church schools, the report seeks to answer the question: does the Archbishop of Canterbury contribute a moral voice in support of the common good that is much needed in contemporary British politics?' From Theos.

Worth Noting
Courting the Holy Spirit by practicing retail politics: Jim Naughton writes for Daily Episcopalian.

Families and Accountability. 'In most cases in Africa, all members of the family have the obligation and the desire to belong. Not many, even the rich and the powerful, can cope easily with consequences of behaviors and actions that might lead to social exclusions, whether forced or self-imposed. It is for this reason that the overwhelming majority of Anglicans and Episcopalians in some parts of the Anglican Communion, for example in Africa, find no fault with the notion of relational consequences, and see it as seeking to enhance accountability and mutual respect.' The Right Reverend R. Mwita Kiri of the Diocese of Tarime in Tanzania writes for The Living Church (Milwaukee).
