Summary:"This is one of the most thoughtful reflections on the crisis going on in the Anglican Communion in print. O'Donovan helps the reader think about the issues in terms of Christian witness and vocation and argues that the 'liberal' 'rights' paradigm is not the best framework for thinking through this issue.
