A sparkling array of leading thinkers and writers in the Church of England bring scripture, doctrine, tradition and pastoral theology into conversation with culture and lived experience to frame a new understanding of sex and marriage that is both faithful to the past and embracing of the present, and counters accusations of an ‘anything goes liberalism’ by conservative opponents. For all seeking to get beyond the default arguments and appeals to selected scriptures that shore up fixed positions and offer a welcoming space grounded in theological understanding, here is a bold, fresh, positive and coherent vision for the future.
