Bishops, Past, Present, and Future is the fruit of over twenty years of study and reflection on the topics it covers. It is the most comprehensive and up-to-date Anglican study of episcopacy produced in recent times. Drawing on primary sources from the New Testament to the present day, it provides detailed answers to three key questions: 'Why should the Church of England have bishops?' 'What is the proper role of bishops?' and 'How should bishops respond to the challenges facing the Church of England and the Church in the West in general?'
This is a book which needs slow reading, like the savouring of a banquet; it is worth reading, like the nourishment of a healthy diet. The book asks for "good enough" bishops; if that's what you would like to be, or that's what you would like to see, please read.
The Rt Revd Keith Sinclair, National Director of the Church of England Evangelical Council and formerly Bishop of Birkenhead
