The Catholic tradition offers a rich and varied resource for the Church of England to draw upon. Far from being the preserve of one discrete corner of the national church, it offers instead an abundant seam of theology, practice and spirituality which is a gift to the whole body of Christ.

First presented as a series of study days held at St Peter de Beauvoir Town, North London, the contributions in this book explore the richness and diversity of the Anglo-Catholic tradition. Chapters reflect on how the tradition can speak into all aspects of life, from community to prayer, worship to marriage, celibacy to justice.

With essays from Rowan Williams, Morwenna Ludlow, Michael Leyden, Ben Kerridge, Mitzi James, Jack Noble, Sally Jones, and Charlie Bell, and homilies from Peter Groves, Joanne Grenfell and Nicolas Stebbing.

Reviews for Catholic Life in the Church of England: Good News for Every Body

‘Catholic life in the Church of England’ reads like a trusted friend who holds up a mirror to reveal love, truth, challenge, and despair. It captures God who pitches his tent in our everyday, immersed in the practical, theological, ethical, and desiring. As simple and complex as breathing or a heartbeat at the same time, reframed, reshaped in the Gospel of embodiment. I finish the book, standing on Fr Ken Leech’s shoulders, understood, heard, unafraid and giddy at God’s delight whilst still clutching a bag of Haribo.' -- Rob Wickham This volume provides a profound exploration of the interplay between universality and particularity embodied within our faith. The contributing authors offer a fresh and poignant reflection on what it means to be both truly universal and deeply rooted in a specific tradition. By delving into the nuances of Catholic life, it illuminates the sacramental dimension experienced within everyday ordinary parish life. It is a thoughtful and refreshing reminder of our shared Anglican and Catholic heritage. -- Anderson Jeremiah
