Saint Thomas Church was proud to offer a series of nine lectures entitled “An Introduction to Anglicanism” given by Dr. Christopher Wells. These lectures were delivered in groups of three in September 2019, December 2019, and March 2020. You can listen to audio of Dr. Wells’ third series of lectures from March of 2020 at the bottom of this page.
These final three classes of the nine-part series alighted on the ecumenical transformation of Anglican ecclesiality in the latter part of the 20th century, with special attention to the Anglican-Roman Catholic international dialogue (ARCIC) and its reception by the councils of the Communion. The now-familiar Augustinian grammar and lexicon guided our examination of contemporary Anglican discernments about faith and order.
