         <description><![CDATA[Some helpful resources I've recently discovered:
Paper by Andreas Whittam-Smith produced for Church of England General Synod also available as Word document.
Papers and presentations at recent Poverty, Debt &amp; Financial Crisis conference organised by Churches Together in Britain and Ireland from people such as John Ellis, Bob Goudzwaard, Ann Pettifor and Paula Clifford.]]></description>

         <title>C.S Lewis &amp; Narnia</title>
         <link>http://ajgoddard.webnode.com/news/c-s-lewis-narnia/</link>
         <description><![CDATA[I’ve always enjoyed the Narnia books and am fascinated to see the publication of a new book on them - Planet Narnia by Michael Ward, an Anglican clergyman - which comes with glowing commendations for his hypothesis about the coherence of the seven volumes. To find out more, there is this short article by Ward introducing his theory with special reference to The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe and a whole website and blog devoted to his book and its intriguing hypothesis that there is a secret...]]></description>

         <title>AM on Advent Letter - Intro</title>
         <link>http://ajgoddard.webnode.com/news/am-on-advent-letter-intro/</link>
         <description><![CDATA[It is now almost a month since the Archbishop of Canterbury’s Advent Letter was published. Among many responses, one of the most recent is that of Anglican Mainstream which appeared earlier this week. It is important both because of the groups comprising AM&#160;(eg Reform, CEEC, New Wine and Crosslinks) and their significance among evangelical Anglicans in the Church of England and other Anglican churches in the British Isles and also because of the wider Communion influence of Chris Sugden,...]]></description>

         <title>AM on Advent Letter - 1st Critique</title>
         <link>http://ajgoddard.webnode.com/news/am-on-advent-letter-1st-critique/</link>
         <description><![CDATA[AM interpret the Archbishop’s words that “we need to honour the hard work done by the bishops of TEC… and determine a way forward” as meaning that “he accepts that TEC is not going to change and therefore, apparently, should not be required to change”.It is, however, unclear what exactly they mean by this.
It is not so much that “he accepts that TEC is not going to change” as that it has changed (certainly since GC 2003) in certain respects but that it remains unclear how much it has changed....]]></description>

         <title>AM on Advent Letter - 2nd Critique</title>
         <link>http://ajgoddard.webnode.com/news/am-on-advent-letter-2nd-critique/</link>
         <description><![CDATA[For AM, the focus of the problem in terms of people is then defined as “those who consecrated Gene Robinson to be a bishop” and the refusal to withhold fellowship is focussed on the fact that “the Archbishop accepts” that they “will be present at the Lambeth Conference”.
This is most likely true as the Archbishop certainly has not withdrawn the invitations. However, it must also be stated that the invitation list is still open to change and AM does not acknowledge this. The Letter states...]]></description>

         <title>AM on Advent Letter - 3rd Critique</title>
         <link>http://ajgoddard.webnode.com/news/am-on-advent-letter-3rd-critique/</link>
         <description><![CDATA[AM also express a concern that “the Archbishop accepts that TEC should remain part of the Anglican Communion fellowship”. The obvious problem here is that there is currently no mechanism by which TEC can be removed from the Anglican Communion – hence again the importance of the covenant.
The following statements about the Archbishop’s view of TEC also appear confused. It is claimed that “because TEC is not “a monochrome body” in its current approach” the Archbishop believes that “external...]]></description>

         <title>AM on Advent Letter - 4th Critique</title>
         <link>http://ajgoddard.webnode.com/news/am-on-advent-letter-4th-critique/</link>
         <description><![CDATA[AM believes that the Archbishop - in maintaining that “genuine ministry and mission can survive even where the reading of Scripture is so defective that other parts of the Communion find it to be no longer recognisably ‘Christian’” – does not make sense.
I share AM’s concern here about allowing authentic ministry even where there is departure from Scripture. This – like the four points noted above (in section I) - is another key area where there needs to be urgent and careful theological...]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[Finally, AM protest that

instead of calling the Primates, who are representative leaders of their provinces to meet to consider TEC’s response to Dar-es-Salaam, the Archbishop has himself decided not to meet them and has substituted a hand-picked team of supposed specialists to determine the future life of the Communion in all its representative bodies. He is acting alone in this.

Once again I find myself both in much sympathy with AM but also ultimately unconvinced by their critique.I too...]]></description>

         <title>Who knows what about the Christmas story?</title>
         <link>http://ajgoddard.webnode.com/news/who-knows-what-about-the-christmas-story/</link>
         <description><![CDATA[A survey carried out by the public theology think tank, Theos, has been getting quite a bit of publicity with reports in the Telegraph, the Times, and on the BBC website which has an extensive discussion about the results.
The survey presented 4 multiple choice questions to a sample of 1015 people:
(1) According to the story in the Christian Bible, where was Jesus born?
Choice of: Bethlehem, Jerusalem, Nazareth, Jericho, None of these
(2) According to the story in the Christian Bible,who told...]]></description>
