Religion and Ethics Newsweekly introduces Lambeth to the wider media world by interviewing three priests (one from California, one from Virginia, and one from Florida) with varying points of view on the state of the Episcopal Church, asking each what message they wish to send to the bishops at the Lambeth conference. The three interviews reflect three different perspectives: openness to the Holy Spirit, steadfastness with respect to hundreds of years of tradition, and holding to the Via Media/middle way.
While the priests offer their advice on what the bishops of Lambeth should be considering, as reporter Kim Lawton notes, “The question for the bishops at Lambeth is whether it is still possible to hold all that diversity together.”
