Hope the Archbishop

Hope the Archbishop

by RobMarshall (Author)

Synopsis

This biography explores Archbishop David Hope's career from St Stephen's House in Oxford, through All saints, Margaret Street in London, through the dioceses of Wakefield, London and York. Many see Hope as the unofficial leader of the Anglo-Catholic tradition within the Church and is widely admired and criticised for his resolute opposition to the ordination of women. Marshall's "insider's" view portrays Hope as a tough Yorkshireman with clear and controversial opinions but also a strong sense of humour. Hope's prophetic vision for Christians in Britain is also revealed.
