- W289035886 abstract "The term evangelical, virtually unknown in North America, has become in the past ten years or so part of the standard nomenclature of the Church of England. An open evangelical is an Anglican who affirms the centrality of Christ, the authority of Scripture, and a spirituality based on a personal relationship with Christ, like other evangelicals. But he or she is open to other Christian traditions, whether catholic, charismatic, or liberal, and is also open to re-expressing Christian truth in categories drawn from the surrounding culture. To an historian, open evangelicalism rather resembles the liberal Anglican evangelicalism which gathered steam in the 187Os, peaked in the 1930s, and seems to have vanished from the face of the earth with the dissolution of the Evangelical Group Movement in 1967. Open evangelicalism stands in contrast to the conservative evangelicalism which takes an inerrantist view of scripture, keeps itself pure from other Christian traditions, including the charismatic strain associated with the lay education program called Alpha, opposes the ordination of women, and objects passionately to the demands of gay Anglicans. Conservatives accuse open evangelicals of a synthesizing theology, compromising morality, and lax spirituality, and see them on the verge of sheer liberalism. In 1993 a group of conservative English evangelicals organized a movement called Reform, and produced a Reform Covenant which a number of individuals and parishes have joined. In 2002 the selection of Rowan Williams as archbishop of Canterbury turned the rift into a chasm; open evangelicals warmly welcomed the appointment, while conservatives savagely denounced it. Increasingly evangelicals feel tempted, or constrained, to locate themselves on one side of the divide or another. On their Internet sites, in their welcome literature, and in their job advertisements many evangelical parish churches are branding themselves open or conservative (but mostly open). Among evangelical theological schools, Trinity College, Bristol, and Ridley Hall, Cambridge, are open, while Oak Hill is conservative. All Church of England bishops who are identified as evangelical are open. A visitor who would see the congregational face of open evangelicalism can do no better than to attend worship at St. Mary, Islington, which on its website (http://www.stmaryislington.org) identifies its position by using this term. Historically, the evangelical credentials of St. Mary are secure. A somewhat middle-brow parish history (Graham L. Claydon, An Every Day Stoiy of Islington Folk: St. Mary's Church [n.d., after 1988]) verifies the pedigree. John and Charles Wesley both had strong connections with the church. The two Daniel Wilsons, father and son, both of them among the most prominent evangelicals of Victorian Anglicanism, were successive vicars for an impressively long period (1824-86). In the twentieth century two future evangelical archbishops of Canterbury, Donald Coggan and George Carey, were curates here. A future archbishop of Sydney was vicar in the late 1940s, and described St. Mary's as something of a cathedral of evangelicalism. Today, the present energetic and ambitious vicar has sought to renew and adapt the powerful evangelical organization known as the Islington Clerical Conference which Daniel Wilson first organized in 1827. The parish of Islington is two miles north of St. Paul's Cathedral, and bears the postal code N.I. St. Mary's Church is situated on Upper Street, which is the high street of the area, near the Angel underground station. The parish gives its name to the entire borough of Islington, which, however, incorporates not only Islington proper but also perhaps a dozen other areas. Through the nineteenth century Islington gathered the reputation of a poor and seamy neighborhood, where many homes had outdoor WCs and no baths. In the years around World War II it began to attract more upscale, professional, and artistic residents, such as, for a while, Evelyn Waugh, Nancy Mitford, Benjamin Britten, and Peter Pears. …" @default.
