In almost every personal conversation I’ve had since returning from Africa I’ve been asked about my personal reflections on the almost four weeks that Catherine and I spent there. 

How was Gafcon?  What was significant? What stood out? How has Africa impacted you?

This episode features conversations with Archbishop Tito Zavala (Chile), Archbishop James Wong (Indian Ocean), Rico Tice (Christianity Explored), Richard Coekin (London), Vaughan Roberts (Oxford), Michael Charles (Anglican Aid http://www.anglicanaid.org.au), Melina Galiboma (Link Officer, Mara Diocese),  Bishop Mwita Akiri (Teremi, Tanzania)

The Church of England official media release says “The Church of England’s General Synod has welcomed proposals which would enable same-sex couples to come to church after a civil marriage or civil partnership to give thanks, dedicate their relationship to God and receive God’s blessing.”

The House of Bishops took a proposal to bless same sex marriages in church to the English general synod last week, in an initiative  led by the Bishop of London, the Bishop of York and the Archbishop of Canterbury. 

And yet what do the words in the synod resolution actually mean?

Dr Peter Jensen is the former general secretary of the Gafcon movement and former Archbishop of Sydney.

The Bishops of the Church of England have announced that same sex relationships will be able to be blessed in Church of England churches. 

In a massive turnaround, the English bishops are saying that what God says is sin, is blessed. 

The prophet Isaiah says, 

Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter. - Isaiah 5:20
