In this exhaustive study of Archbishop Michael Ramsey's doctrine of the church, Jared C. Cramer creates a picture of a modern Episcopal church that seeks to continue Ramsey's vision of the ministry of Christ. Ramsey was perhaps the most respected articulator of Anglicanism for the twentieth century. Central to Ramsey's approach to theology was the gospel of Jesus' life, death, burial, and resurrection, which he believed revealed the very nature and glory of God. He felt that it influenced Christian theology at every level, from theological reflection to institutional structures. Cramer explores the full implications of glory in Ramsey's theology and applies this theology to current developments and issues in the Anglican Communion.
