The Calling of a Cuckoo by David Jenkins
In February 1984, David Jenkins received an invitation from then Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, to become Bishop of Durham. His tenancy of the See was to become one of the most controversial in its history. He hit the headlines as the "unbelieving bishop" after his expositions of the Virgin Birth and the Resurrection. When York Minister burst into flames days after his consecration, his notoriety was assured. Now in retirement, he attempts to explain the man behind the controversy: how he came to his beliefs, and how that continuing and deepening faith in God carried him through the height of the controversies and remains with him today.| SKU | Unavailable |
