Then Rt. Rev Gavin Ashenden held the position from 2008 until 2017, when he left following, inter alia, a public liturgical reading in a Glasgow cathedral from the Quran that denied the divinity of Christ.  A good Protestant, he protested. And then he parted ways with the established church. The rest of the story is told in this interview with England’s highest-profile Catholic convert, received into the Catholic Church in December 2019.   For the rest of show notes and resources mentioned: www.patrickcoffin.media
