Partially resulting from the confusion sown by TEC and other revisionist ecclesial bodies, and partly due to the distinct historical currents that formed Anglicanism, Sionnsar and I are often asked to explain Anglican theology and how Anglicans worship. The above article is one writer's attempt to answer these questions in Cliff Note form.

FReepmail Huber or sionnsar if you want on or off this moderately high-volume ping list (sometimes 3-9 pings/day).

You have clearly delineated what happens when there is separation from the authoritative teaching and tradition of the Catholic Church...splintering left and right. The Church is One under the temporal leadership of Peter and his successors. It is Peter, acting in alter Christus and who is Christ’s ordained representative, who binds the Church together. Separate from Peter and you have apostasy.

I have to say, the only people who seem to discuss and are even aware of the “high church/low church” division are those self-identified with high church Anglo-Catholicism.

No offense intended, but to me the term “high church” is a bit like “progressive;” that is overtly self-congratulatory—that is assuming what it purports to define.

Us “low church” types don’t refer to ourselves as that, we just see ourselves as Christ’ body...if that’s low, all well and good.

Sorry to bump an ancient thread, but it is an interesting thread. I believe there is also a Low Church Evangelical wing that is typified by:

1. Calvinist (4- or 5-point) theology
2. Minimal liturgy because most of these liturgies are unhelpful in believers growing in relationship in Christ. It is virtually identical to Reformed Baptist or modern Presbyterian service.
3. The clergy wears casual dress (not even suits)
4. They look to John Piper, John MacArthur in teachings.
5. The key to define being Anglican is the 39 Articles, which is decidedly Reformed in teachings.
6. Ethos: To Make Christ Known, Bible studies, Christianity Explored, Sovereign Grace Music, Stuart Townend and Kristyn Getty.
7. Shrine Church: Sydney Diocese, where Philip Jensen or John Stott or J.I. Packer, All Souls Church London, Oak Hill College, Reformed movement in the Church of England.
8. Non-charismatic and against the seeker sensitive/Purpose Driven/Emergent movements.
