Priestland’s Progress

Description

Priestland’s Progress is one man’s attempt to discover if he really is a Christian. As Gerald Priestland, the BBC’s Religious Affairs Correspondent, undertakes his pilgrimage, aided by his tape recorder, we can accompany him and share what he learns. This journey through different areas of Christianity explores concepts such as the Trinity, the Holy Spirit and the Sacraments, and discuss who Jesus was, how we know God, the relationship of God, Man and sin, the meaning of the Cross and the place of prayer and worship…These fundamentals of the faith are expounded by members of many branches of Christianity; they include Metropolitan Anthony, head of the Russian Orthodox Church in Britain; Raymond Brown, Principle of the Baptist Spurgeon’s College; Cardinal Hume, Archbishop of Westminster; the Archbishop of Canterbury, Robert Runcie; Lord Soper of the Methodists, and many more men and women up the down the land who think and care about their faith – and wish to share it. No one would claim that all churches are the same; but Priestland’s Progress shows that beneath the differences of detail there really is something that can be called the Christian Faith.​
