Noted This Week

Page Editor: Richard Mammana

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
Breaking (More) Bread Together: G. Jeffrey MacDonald writes for The Living Church (Milwaukee) on dinner churches.

Gore Lecture 2014: Bishop N. T. Wright lectures on the faithfulness of God, from Westminster Abbey. 'The faithfulness of God is a controlling theme of Paul's writings. Divine faithfulness, both to covenant and to creation, raises questions of considerable contemporary urgency: the new challenge to unity, a vision of ecological stewardship, the quest for holiness, and the renewal of mission, particularly in relation to social and political moods and structures. In these areas Paul cuts across the lines of fashionable thinking now, as he did in his own day: this lecture will explore the key current debates, and expound a fresh way of reading Paul (as in the author’s recent book).'

Worth Noting
The Church has no choice but to act: 'As a bishop, I believe it is the duty of religion to challenge political power when it fails in its responsibility to the most vulnerable in society.' David Walker writes for The Guardian (London).

Ornate objects transform into sacred symbols at bishop's consecration. 'At one level they are just things, objects.' Douglas Todd writes for The Vancouver Sun.

Communion still counting its firsts: 'The world was watching on Feb. 11, 1989, when Barbara C. Harris was consecrated before a congregation of nearly 8,000 at Hynes Auditorium in Boston, thus becoming the worldwide Anglican Communion’s first female bishop.' This interview on the 25th anniversary of her consecration comes from the Diocese of Massachusetts.
