Publisher's Synopsis
Cross-Bench Views of Current Church Questions is a book written by H. Hensley Henson and published in 1902. The book is a collection of essays that provide a critical analysis of the Church of England and its practices at the turn of the 20th century. Henson, who was a prominent Anglican bishop and theologian, takes a cross-bench approach to the issues at hand, meaning that he attempts to provide an objective analysis that is not influenced by any particular faction or interest group within the Church. The essays cover a wide range of topics, including the role of the Church in society, the relationship between the Church and the state, the nature of the Church's authority, and the challenges facing the Church in a rapidly changing world. Henson's writing is clear and concise, and he presents his arguments in a logical and persuasive manner. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and theology of the Church of England, as well as for those interested in the broader issues of religion and society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
