On Sunday, Nigel made reference to the ‘House of Bishops Working Group on Human Sexuality’ (known as the Pilling Report), saying it could have significant ramifications for the Church of England – and possibly for St John’s – since it could make the position of orthodox churches like ours untenable.
You can find a copy of the full report here.
Nigel also mentioned the Bishop of Birkenhead’s dissenting statement in Appendix 3, a copy of which can be found here. It is a faithful, robust and Biblical defence of the church’s orthodox position on sexuality, for which we should be very grateful – especially given the slant of the rest of the report. If you would like to write a short note of encouragement and thanks, the Bishop’s email is here.
