Book Description
Charles Gore (1853-1932), the future Bishop of Oxford and a passionate campaigner for social justice, compiled and edited these twelve theological essays published in 1891. The eleven contributors, all Oxford scholars at some time, shared the conviction that theology must engage with advances in scientific and historical knowledge, learn from them, and use them in interpreting Christian doctrine. In their case, this meant recognising God at work in the material world, in evolution, and in society, not merely at the spiritual level. 'If the true meaning of the faith is to be made sufficiently conspicuous, ' Gore wrote in his introduction, 'it needs disencumbering, reinterpreting, explaining'. The essays focus on the Incarnation, as the central doctrine for the whole of theology, which may be applied very differently in different contexts. The book, regarded by some as too progressive, was a great success and sold ten editions in its first year

Book Description
Lux Mundi: A Series of Studies in the Religion of the Incarnation' serves as a pivotal anthology that encapsulates a significant shift within theological thought, particularly within the Anglican tradition. It showcases a breadth of literary styles ranging from rigorous academic discourse to more reflective, meditative essays, all centered around the incarnation of Christ and its implications for modern faith and life. The diversity and depth of the contributions make it a cornerstone collection, illuminating varied perspectives on a foundational Christian doctrine, while also daring to engage with contemporary scientific and moral philosophy, thus bridging the gap between faith and reason. The contributing authors, including H. S. Holland, Aubrey Moore, and C. Gore among others, are distinguished for their profound contributions to theology and the broader intellectual movements of their time. Collectively aligned with the broader 'Liberal Anglicanism' movement, their works in this anthology reflect a nuanced attempt to reconcile traditional Christian doctrine with the rapid advancements and discoveries of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Their diverse academic and clerical backgrounds enrich the anthology, offering a tapestry of insights that speak to a wide audience of both believers and skeptics. 'Religion of the Incarnation' is not just a scholarly exploration but a compelling invitation to readers interested in theological and philosophical questions. It holds significant educational value, providing a comprehensive overview of a transformative period in Anglican theology through the voices of its most influential thinkers. For those seeking to understand the complexities of faith in a rapidly changing world, this collection offers a multitude of perspectives, encouraging a deeper engagement with the questions that have shaped Christian thought and practice for centuries.

Book Description
Excerpt from Lux Mundi: A Series of Studies in the Religion of the Incarnation There are two things which may fairly be regretted in regard to the criticisms - often the very kind and encouraging criticisms - which this book has received. There is, first, the disproportionate attention which has been given to some twenty pages on the subject of the inspiration of Holy Scripture, an attention so disproportionate as to defeat the object which the writers had in view in assigning to that subject its place in the general treatment of the work of the Holy Spirit - the object, namely, of giving it its proper context in the whole body of Christian truth: and there is, secondly, the fact that we have not generally succeeded in gaining the attention of our critics to the point of view from which these studies were written, and the purpose they were intended to serve.
