Publisher's Synopsis
The Jurisdiction and Mission of the Anglican Episcopate is a book written by Thomas J. Bailey that explores the role and responsibilities of Anglican bishops. The book delves into the history of the Anglican Church and the development of the episcopate, as well as the theological and practical implications of the bishop's role in the church. Bailey examines the authority and jurisdiction of bishops, including their relationship with other clergy and the laity, and their responsibility for pastoral care and spiritual guidance. He also considers the mission of the Anglican Church and the role of the bishop in fulfilling that mission. The book is a comprehensive study of the episcopate in the Anglican Church, and provides valuable insights for scholars, clergy, and laypeople alike.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
