What began as an informal inquiry soon grew into a compelling collection of reflections, research and raw testimony.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHow to Save the Church of England traces the evolution of the parish system, how it grew into a recognizable pattern and why parishes suddenly became huge benefices. It also explores the causes of clergy shortages, examines changes in ordination and Church finance, and considers the cultural impact of waning religious education. But the heart of the book lies in the voices of the people - from clergy (active and retired) and lay leaders to occasional churchgoers 'on the fringe' - offering honest and often surprising insights into what the Church means to them today.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFar from an attack on ecclesiastical leadership, this is a candid, sometimes humorous, and sincere attempt to listen, understand and ask: what future lies ahead for the Parish Church?\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 192\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.64 x 9.22 x 6.15 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e December 11, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48622985937145,"sku":"9781036195151","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/udDemBtxqA9781036195151.webp?v=1782991393","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/how-to-save-the-church-of-england-the-voice-of-the-people-paperback","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
