Wood Lake Books, Incorporated, 1995 - 191 pages

This book is a guide to the Anglican church for those already travelling an Anglican path as well as for those who wish to explore it. Patricia Bays, who knows and loves her church, writes about all aspects of Anglicanism in an approachable style. She takes us from Celtic and Tudor England through the Reformation and Industrial Revolution to 21st century Canada and describes how the Anglican Church has met the challenges of change. Topics include: is there an Anglican theology? How do Anglicans make ethical decisions? What happens when we become ill or die? Who are the Anglicans?

This is a book that can be read cover to cover or simply opened up and referred to. The topics of the 18 short chapters are self-evident and a comprehensive glossary makes easy work of understanding unfamiliar church language. The book also contains a five-session study guide written by Jim Taylor for group use.
