Anglicanism today is experiencing an identity crisis. The conflicts that have arisen
from the battle between those who hold to Biblical standards of orthodoxy and
those liberals of the theological left have left Anglicans struggling to redefine
what actually constitutes the essentials of their tradition and where they stand
within the context of the greater Catholic Church. In this book, Bishop Redmile
seeks to reacquaint his fellow Anglicans with the orthodox doctrine of their
tradition in regard to the Sacraments and Ministry of the Church, and to make
a case for the historical continuity of their lines of Apostolic Succession and the
validity of their ministerial Orders. This work will be of immense interest to any
Anglicans concerned with recovering a true understanding of their heritage, and
of value to those Anglicans involved in working towards achieving reconciliation
with their Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox brethren.
The Right Reverend Robert David Redmile is the Bishop of
Richmond, British Columbia, the first and founding Diocese of the
Christian Episcopal Church of Canada. Bishop Redmile was born
in 1961, and was raised in Vancouver, British Columbia, where
he attended Sir Winston Churchill Secondary School, Vancouver
Community College Langara, the University of British Columbia,
and Regent College. Bishop Redmile read Classics, Philosophy,
History, and English Literature, as well as Latin, French, and
German. For a number of years, Bishop Redmile taught high
school before studying for the Ministry. In 1993, Bishop Redmile was ordained to
the Priesthood in the Christian Episcopal Church of Canada, a traditional Anglican
jurisdiction which separated from the Episcopal Church in 1992 under the leadership
of Bishop A. Donald Davies. In September 2002, Bishop Redmile was consecrated to
the sacred Episcopate, succeeding Bishop Davies as the second Bishop of the Diocese
of Richmond.
