Synopsis
“That the Church of England should have spent so much energy on two matters of relative unimportance is bad enough. That this should have happened during the sharpest economic downturn since the early 1930s, with its disproportionate consequences for the most disadvantaged, is nothing short of scandalous.”
Kevin Carey’s thorough exegesis and cutting commentary question the purpose and intent of the modern church. Examining the bible book by book, Carey demonstrates that the Church has betrayed its core message by failing to focus on the big issues of the bible and society and instead becoming myopic in its obsession with doctrinal minutiae.
