I think you're misunderstanding what he said. When the ACNA was first formed many of the founding jurisdictions were under episcopal supervision from Nigeria and other provinces. The "stepping back" is referring to these provinces allowing the ACNA dioceses to become self-governing members of the North American province, no longer under the authority of African or South American bishops.
Yes listening is always the first step to disobeying Divine direction. I don’t think Luther, Calvin and Cranmer engaged in listening to anything other than God’s word!
@@marmeemarch7080 Jesus was a "he" as far as we know. Gender is merely a convention of language and context There are empirical differences of the sexes...gametes, chromosomes, but that's not true of gender. Persian, as a gender-neutral language, doesn’t inherently assign gender to nouns. In Zoroastrianism, for instance, Ahura Mazda is considered genderless. Similarly, in Islam, Allah is beyond gender. In general, English does not have much of a gender system. We divide things into male people, female people, and everything else.
Not what he said. He was talking about church planters. That's where the rest of the Body of Christ steps in, to correct, form, and use *all* the gifts of the Holy Spirit for the sanctification of *all* the members. But granted, a bishop shouldn't be the one with problematic theology. Well, a lot of those guys have significant gaps in their biblical and theological education and pastoral experience and training.
@@marmeemarch7080 This is true marmee. I know kids in undergraduate religion classes with a better grasp of christianity (and atheists for that matter) than alot of these folks. They might say to these evangelizers: “Your behavior makes me feel like you don’t trust me. It makes me really uncomfortable.” The smart one's aren't going to be obedient to others who are controlling. And, controlling the sex lives of others is a great way to fill the pews. Autocracies know this as a way to assert power.
Happy I was able to say hi to Kevin. It’s a great privilege to be serving with such dedicated men and women. This weeks synod went really well.
This is my bishop and my diocese. This bishop came to our church and I met him. Wonderful man. Right place right time.
A terrific interview. Thanks Kev. I know whom I am praying for in regards to the next Archbishop of ACNA.
Great interview Kevin. Thanks to you both, with prayers and best wishes.
This is the best episode of Anglican Unscripted that I have seen.
Isn’t fifteen years of listening enough? We Anglicans like kicking the can down the road.
God bless you, thank you
Nigeria's backing away from GAFCON? Am I the only person who is surprised to hear that?

Thanks for explaining. I'm glad I was wrong
Not sure if Nigeria is really stepping back, based on what they've done lately. . . we'll see.

Archbishop material
First...is not to listen to each other...First is to study the WORD OF GOD, and adhere to what IT says, rather than submit to any other opinion...
The Word of God is a He.

Don't mention the sheep!
So, if a Bishop can generate the numbers but has questionable theology and or doctrine; well that's ok. REALLY???
