""The authors in this admirable collection assume the traditional teaching of the Church on marriage, but this is not the end of the matter but rather the beginning: they take advocates of revision seriously, and contribute to a more serious theological conversation than we have often heard . . . It is not insignificant that this contribution emerged from a collaboration of a lively parish and academy pro ecclesia."" --George Sumner Principal and Helliwell Professor of World Mission Wycliffe College ""In the weariness that surrounds the seemingly intractable debate on sexual ethics in the Church, it is expected that some might groan at the appearance of yet another book on the subject. Such a groan would be warranted if the essays contained in Human Sexuality and the Nuptial Mystery simply recapitulated the arguments that have brought us to an impasse. But here the thoughtful Christian will find new and evocative avenues of discussion . . . [T]he reader of these essays will be drawn into a deeper understanding of the mystery of human sexuality--and perhaps a new perspective on what divides the Church."" --Rev. Stephen Andrews Bishop of Algoma
