Barbed Wire and the Anglican Covenant

Judging from the number of comments elicited by her recent post about Executive Council’s encounter with Canon Kenneth Kearon, lots of people have been reading Katie Sherrod’s blog, Desert’s Child. I hope they will return to the blog to read Katie’s most recent post, “Barbed wire and the Anglican Covenant.”

The essay is a meditation on a piece of garden sculpture and the proposed Anglican covenant. According to Katie, the covenant “seeks to wrap rings of bureaucratic barbed wire around the Holy Spirit, imprisoning the Spirit in processes of discipline designed to enforce unanimity of theology, of interpretation of Scripture, and who knows what else.” Katie’s brief essay is worth reading in its entirety.
