Summary
InAnglicans in Australia, bishop and theological commentator Tom Frame identifies the fault lines and tensions that exist within the contemporary Anglican Church, describes continuing debates over doctrine and their effect on the Australian Church's relationship with the global Anglican Communion, and outlines problems, prospects and possibilities over the next twenty-five years. This thoroughly researched and carefully constructed book, written by a perceptive and judicious insider, will help Anglicans understand their own complex religious institution and illuminate it for outsiders as well.
