The Anglican Approach to the Bible
This course explores the central role of the Bible for Anglicans. We will study the distinctive ways Anglicans have used and interpreted scripture. We will also look at the ways scripture has shaped and formed Anglicanism. We will seek to illuminate the dialogue between scripture and tradition in Anglicanism through reading the Bible in conjunction with representative Anglican resources.
