Living In Love & Faith By Davie, Martin

Living in Love and Faith (LLF) is a set of resources produced by the bishops of the Church of England to help Christians discern God's will on the issues of 'identity, sexuality, relationships and marriage.' As those in the Church of England engage with these resources, they need to know the answers to two key questions about them. What do the LLF resources contain? What are we to make of them theologically? This book gives a detailed answer to both questions. It explains the background and content of the LLF material and then goes on to explain why this material fails to provide the teaching that Christians in the Church of England need if they are to live out their calling to be a distinctive people who act as salt and light in the midst of the idolatry of contemporary Western society. The book concludes by outlining how 'biblically grounded Anglicans' should engage with the Next Steps process following on from LLF. Finally, there are FAQs. Foreword by Bishop Michael Nazir-Ali
