The Story of Anglicanism

An exceptional history of the Anglican Church narrated in three half- hour parts by Michael York. Three parts make this an ideal Sunday adult education resource. Also can be used with confirmation groups, new members groups or with youth groups. 

 

Part I: Ancient and Medieval Foundations (28 minutes) The roots of our tradition are traced in the evolution and mission and ministry of the pre-Reformation English Church.

 

Part II: Reformation and Its Consequences (29 minutes) Henry VIII's often misunderstood break with papal authority initiates the shaping of classical Anglicanism.

 

Part III: Creating a Global Family (25 minutes) The Anglican genius for adaptation is seen in its response to the modern world and its evolution into a worldwide communion.
