During this century, the Christian Churches of Britain have lost support and influence to the extent that their future is considered by some observers to be problematic. They have also been confronted with an unprecedented concentration of social changes, some of which have challenged central religious traditions and teachings. This multi-denominational study investigates these changes (public and private) across virtually the entire Christian spectrum. The book shows that while there are examples of growing division between Churches over some social issues, the more general response has been one of differences within Churches
