Portions of his great apologia for Anglicanism, Of the Laws of Ecclesiastical Policy, are still required reading in most Anglican seminaries and his ideas have been seminal for most other theologians in this denomination since the early seventeenth century. Unfortunately, Hooker's defining ideas about the Church, the sacraments, Holy Scripture, the incarnation, prayer, worship, the Trinity, church polity, and virtually every aspect of Anglican faith and worship are no longer accessible to most Christians. His writing style is too cumbersome for most modern readers to untangle. To remedy this problem and make Hooker's timeless wisdom once again available to Christians inside the Anglican family and without, Dr. Secor has rendered Hooker's difficult prose in 'Book Five' into contemporary English, continuing the process of 'translation' begun in his acclaimed, The Sermons of Richard A Modern Edition.  aChristianity -- Faith  aWorship  aChurch of England4 uhttps://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/14794/40.jpgyCover Image
