American Bishop Speaks His Mind

[The Living Church] 31 Jul 2008--Bishop Peter Beckwith of Springfield spoke of his own Christian faith and responded to questions from the media during a 45-minute session at the Lambeth Conference on July 30.

It was one of the few unscripted moments that the media have been able to observe to date at this event, and Bishop Beckwith drew a large group that delayed the start of an official Episcopal News Service media briefing with bishops Leo Frade of Southeast Florida and Dean Wolfe of Kansas. Bishop Beckwith’s willingness to entertain questions was also notable in that he broke ranks with his colleagues who have http://www.livingchurch.org/news/news-updates/2008/7/9/bishops-receive-media-handling-tips received training that encourages them to give the media “no more than they need or can use.”
