Church, State and Establishment

Church, State and Establishment by Rev Paul D L Avis

This is a wide-ranging text, which attempts to cover major issues facing the Church of England in both theological and practical ways. It is particularly concerned with the establishment of the Church of England and its relationship with mission. The questions it covers include: what is the spirituality of people who seldom come to Church?; what sort of bishops, clergy and lay ministers do we need for the mission of the Church?; what does it mean to be a "national Church"?; and is the established status of the Church of England a help or a hindrance to its mission in the world?

Paul Avis is General Secretary of the Council for Christian Unity of the Archbishops' Council, and Director of the Centre for the Study of the Christian Church. He is also Prebendary and Sub Dean of Exeter Cathedral and Research Fellow in the Department of Theology of the University of Exeter. He has been a member of the Church of England Doctrine Commission and vice-chairman of the Faith and Order Advisory Group and has served on the General Synod.
