Female Voices, Sydney Anglicans, and Adelaidian Bishops

My friend John Dickson’s book Hearing Her Voice (HHV) caused a stir in Sydney Anglican circles with his book arguing for women preaching in church resulting in a response volume called Women, Sermons, and the Bible edited by Peter Bolt and Tony Payne (WSB).

Bishop Tim Harris, an Anglican Bishop in Adelaide. is currently reviewing WSB and their response to HHV. His reviews are posted over at his blog New Anglicanism where so far there are parts 1, 2, 3, and 4.

+Harris writes because “I am disturbed that John Dickson really doesn’t seem to have been portrayed in reasonable terms. ”

It is quite a scintillating riposte from outside of the Sydney Anglican scene.
