Inhaltsangabe

Each volume in the Lutheran Looks At series gives a brief look at the teachings of a particular denomination and compares them to confessional Lutheranism. This provides an invaluable tool for comparative study and helps readers better understand the beliefs of neighbors, coworkers, and friends.

What exactly do Episcopalians believe? This book, while noting that not all Episcopalians accept the same teachings or practice, clearly presents their church history, beliefs, and practices. Episcopalians, like Lutherans, proclaim Jesus and administer the sacraments, but the Episcopal church is not a confessional body. It finds its unity in The Book of Common Prayer. The author includes numerous quotes gathered from a survey of Episcopal clergy and shows the tension that exists as this nonconfessional church wrestles with how to react to thoughts and practices in today's culture.
