'In a world in which reaction frequently overwhelms reflection, and information trumps wisdom, Martyn Percy's perceptive reflections provide fresh and challenging ways in which to consider the life and mission of the church.' Frank Griswold, former Presiding Bishop and Primate of the Episcopal Church, USA 'This is one of the best books I have ever read on Anglican identity and mission. It is a wonderfully inclusive book that is a challenge to all sections of the church.' George Carey, Lord Carey of Clifton, Archbishop of Canterbury, 1991-2002 'Many have much to learn from the style of faith that Martyn Percy offers. He shows readers ways of making peace between competing communities of conviction, and provides salutary warnings to those who imagine that slight from the earthen vessels of institutional religion is the way out of such conflict.' Times Literary Supplement
