- Notes
- "In his Youth View column, Andrew Stephens-Rennie ['So I'll be bold', Nov. 2012, p. 4] says that songs from the secular canon '.. can also call us back to the table, back to the cross, back to the life we find in Jesus Christ'. Traditional hymns have a place in our liturgy, as do newer, contemporary ones. We must find a way to mingle them, to enrich our worship, making it something that speaks to, nurtures and empowers all Anglicans. If we don't, how can we invite others into a faith community that is rigid and inflexible in worship ? Remember: 'Blessed are the flexible, for they shall never break !'"
