Abstract
In March 2003, I chaired a conference at St Mary’s Islington, on ‘Our Mission in Britain Today’. The three addresses were from conservative, open and charismatic perspectives, of evangelical Anglicanism. I arranged for their publication in a journal and wrote this chapter to set the scene for them, and for the fourth National Evangelical Anglican Congress in September 2003 at Blackpool. I provided first the current outlines of the three traditions, and then reflections on their history and theology before concluding about the need for rigour without rancour.
