 Frank G. Kirkpatrick

0-313-34662-3/978-0-313-34662-0

Description
Provides a concise and readable overview of the current crisis in the Episcopalian Church in the U.S. and its relationship with the Anglican Church

Reviews:
-It's one thing to know what's been happening, but quite another to think through the clashing agendas and what they imply for the future of Anglicanism....[A]nyone seriously concerned with the current crisis will nevertheless need to take account of this book and its analysis of The Episcopal Church's situation. —The Living Church
-Kirkpatrick....comprehensively addresses church history and beliefs as a background for the complex issues affecting unity or division within today's Episcopal Church....He covers pertinent details of issues raised--e.g., biblical authority, church history, ecclesiastical authority, and the place for human reasoning--in a multiplicity of meetings and conferences....Recommended for academic libraries. —Library Journal
-Kirkpatrick (Trinity College, CT) neatly describes the crisis in which the worldwide Anglican Communion is currently embroiled....This excellent book provides a heavily researched and dense overview of what promises to be an ongoing debate....Recommended. —Choice
