These days, you can ask a group of 10 Anglicans a question and receive 15 different answers! It’s easy to find Anglican jargon and arguments out there, but it’s hard to find clear and charitable guides to the Anglican tradition. It shouldn’t be this difficult to navigate such a rich and beautiful tradition! There’s too much at stake! Anglicanism (the branch of the church that traces its origins to the Church of England) is uniquely situated to emphasize the importance of both the insights of the Protestant Reformation and the riches of the catholic tradition. The Anglican tradition contains riches that can benefit the global Church! Anglicanism provides a beautiful vision of Christianity as a way of life—not just a list of beliefs, rules, or emotional experiences. But there’s a problem. Anglicanism can be confusing and contentious. Perhaps you’ve experienced this firsthand. The Anglican tradition looks appealing from a distance but, up close, it can be quite messy. Over the centuries, Anglicans have spilled ink and shed blood trying to define what’s truly “Anglican” and what’s not. Anglican Compass seeks to help the questioning understand the riches of the Anglican tradition and to help others explain Anglicanism to others. Anglican Compass doesn't want anyone getting sucked into a strand of Anglican fundamentalism, without a healthy appreciation for Anglicanism’s diversity.
Commonweal's mission is to provide a forum for civil, reasoned debate on the interaction of faith with contemporary politics and culture. Read by a passionate audience of educated, committed Christians, as well as readers from many other faith traditions,
Commonweal presents well-argued, respectful points of view from across the ideological spectrum. In an often contentiously divided church and secular culture, its status as an independent journal of opinion encourages conversations that can be difficult in other settings. Commonweal publishes many of the leading catholic theologians, writers, and public figures in the United States. |
The Episcopal Café seeks to be an independent voice, reporting and reflecting on the Episcopal Church and the Anglican tradition. The Café is not a platform of advocacy, but it does aim to tell the story of the church from the perspective of Progressive Christianity. The collective purpose, as the Café, lies with the project of widening the circle of inclusion within the church and empowering all the Baptized for the role to which they have been called as followers of Christ. The opinions expressed at the Café are those of individual contributors, and should not be interpreted as official statements of a parish, diocese or other organization. The art and articles that appear this site remain the property of their creators.
