This is a thought provoking analysis of the ongoing discussion between the Roman Catholic Church and the Church of England. In a courteous and clear way the issues are highlighted, points of view acknowleged and dealt with. If you are interested in developments with the church this book will stimulate - and give you a clear grasp of the debate. The book deals with the place of Scripture; the ordination of woman; The holy Spirit; and the church infallibility and much more.
