Description
The Church of England is in a season of discernment as it seeks a way to honour and accommodate differing theological and pastoral responses to Living in Love and Faith and to find a way to remain united despite sometimes profound disagreement. Martyn Snow offers further practical resources for this season of listening, prayer, patience and kindness.
Drawing on his experiences of working in the UK's most culturally diverse diocese to explore how best to live together well across difference, such that all church members - especially those who have been historically marginalised - flourish, he finds helpful models in the in the field of interculturalism and in the concept of gift exchange. These models are expressed in generous giving, radical receptivity and transformative thanksgiving - all of which can contribute positively to today's pressing questions.
