Michael P. Jensen is Lecturer in Doctrine and Church History at Sydney's Moore College. He is the author of Martyrdom and Identity: The Self on Trial (2010) and (with Tom Frame) Defining Convictions and Decisive Commitments: The Thirty-Nine Articles in Contemporary Anglicanism (2010).
For many observers, Sydney Anglicanism is an incomprehensible
oxymoron--a diocese decidedly committed to the authority of
Scripture and the primacy of its proclamation, yet institutionally
yoked to the far more doctrinally progressive and liturgically
centered Anglican Church of Australia, not to mention the wider
Anglican Communion. What makes such an anomaly tick? Equally
important, where should its undisputed vigor and clout head? A
reflective son of the diocese, Michael P. Jensen is to be commended
for providing a concise, articulate, and thoughtful book that seeks
to answer both of these important questions. Henceforth, neither
friend nor foe of Sydney Anglicanism will be taken seriously
without first engaging Michael Jensen's timely apology and
critique.
