[The Living Church] 28 Mar 2007--The ‘Listening Process’ on homosexuality is not closed in The Episcopal Church, according to an official report filed recently with the Anglican Consultative Council (ACC). Reports have been received from most of the Anglican Communion's 38 provinces.
“There continues to be a spectrum of opinions within the church,” the report states. “Listening has no preconceived outcome other than to hear the voice of God in the present context. It is built on the common ground of commitment to God’s mission and our baptismal covenant. It requires safe ground for people to express themselves in their vulnerability in order for the discontinuity between what we proclaim and how we are heard and experienced to be clear. It requires serious engagement with the Bible.”
