Abstract:
The General Synod met at St Paul's and St George's Church in Edinburgh from 9 to 11 June 2016. In his charge to Synod, the Primus, the Most Revd David Chillingworth, reflected on the injunction of St Paul to ‘please God, who tests our hearts’. As the Synod prepared to consider canonical change in relation to marriage, he asked how the Church was to continue to express the love and unity to which it was called by God. During the preceding year, deep pain in relationships had been experienced both in the Anglican Communion and with the Church of Scotland and Church of England – and there was a n

Abstract:
The 2014 referendum in Scotland, which brought victory for the unionists, was characterised by a high level of involvement of religious organisations in the campaign. Although the Churches chose to be neutral on the referendum dilemma, this was explained by prevailing attitudes among clergy, who objected Scottish independence. In this article, analysing the stance of the Church of Scotland, Roman Catholic Church, Episcopal Church of Scotland, and Free Church of Scotland, I argue that the chosen path of neutrality played more in favour of unionists.

Abstract:
Mathew's varied ecclesiastical progress presents a fascinating case study of an episcopate detached from a main-stream Christian community and alerts us to the danger of solely considering ‘episcopal lineage‘ as the litmus test for apostolicity. Mathew was born in France in 1852 and baptised a Roman Catholic; due to his mother's scruples he was soon re-baptised in the Anglican Church. He studied for the ministry in the Episcopal Church of Scotland, but sought baptism again in the Church of Rome, into which he was ordained as a priest in Glasgow in 1877. He became a Dominican in 1878, but only

Abstract:
This article explores how art installed within a church space contributes to the church’s cultural witness, drawing from the contemporary example of Alison Watt’s Still, installed in Old Saint Paul’s Episcopal Church in Edinburgh, Scotland. While the object’s capacity to proclaim is present, this case study extends the exploration of art’s cultural witness to include imaginative participation in the Gospel narrative as well as its transformation of the space in which it is installed. Focus then turns to the Church’s patronage of the visual arts, arguing that this is another example of cultural

Abstract:
Most Scots have heard of the National Covenant subscribed in Edinburgh around the end of February 1638. Few, by contrast, know anything about the five acts or articles (requiring the observation of holy days, episcopal confirmation of the laity, kneeling in the act of receiving the eucharist, and permitting the celebration of both communion and baptism in private) passed by a general assembly of the Church at Perth twenty years earlier. Yet those who took time to read the Covenant through would find that its signatories were, among other things, renewing a fifty-year-old pledge to resist all ‘

Abstract:
The most important contribution made by Archbishop James Ussher to the ecclesiastical developments of the Interregnum and Restoration periods was his short tract The Reduction of Episcopacy Unto the Form of Synodical Government. Printed only after his death in 1656, its combination of ministerial synods with episcopal rule was seen as a basis for presbyterian-episcopal reconciliation over the next three decades. The tract was printed in five editions during the later 1650s, and came out in two more editions in 1679, when the Popish Plot and the calling of a new Parliament revived hopes that di

Abstract:
This thesis reassesses the nature and importance of the Scottish Episcopal Church in Edinburgh and more widely. Based on a microstudy of one chapel community over a twenty-four year period, it addresses a series of questions of religion, identity, gender, culture and civic society in late Enlightenment Edinburgh, Scotland, and Britain, combining ecclesiastical, social and economic history. The study examines the congregation of Charlotte Episcopal Chapel, Rose Street, Edinburgh, from its foundation by English clergyman Daniel Sandford in 1794 to its move to the new Gothic chapel of St John's i

Abstract:
In 1690, the Church of Scotland rejected episcopal authority and settled as Presbyterian. The adjacent Presbyteries of Stirling and Dunblane covered an area that included both lowland and highland communities, speaking both English and Gaelic and supporting both the new government and the old – thus forming a representative picture of the nation as a whole. This book examines the ways in which the two Presbyteries operated administratively, theologically and geographically under the new regime.

This chapter summarises the trajectory of the national church under in the reigns of Charles II and James VII showing how Charles dislodged Presbyterian ministers on his restoration and the way the episcopally-governed church functioned in the ensuing three decades through the continuing medium of presbyteries and synods. More specifically it looks at how the national picture was reflected locally. Local involvement in Covenanting is seen through the published diaries of Erskine of Carnock and Ure of Shirgarton.

Abstract:
This chapter argues that while, for Scottish non-jurors, support for the Jacobites was a political, physical, ecclesiastical and temporal disaster, as far as theology, ecclesiology and liturgy were concerned there was another side to the story; the opposite obtained. The Non-jurors, on account of earthly disappointment, concentrated on the things that were necessary for spiritual well-being and eternal salvation. The Revolution Settlement of 1689-90 gave them a freedom from Erastianism which created an opportunity that pushed the Scottish Episcopal Church towards the cutting edge of liturgy an

Abstract:
This chapter examines empirical evidence of martial and logistical assistance implemented by a select quantity of ministers involved in the Forty-five, and whether their practical commitment was indeed as energetic as their ideological enthusiasm. It assesses just how demonstrably impactful were the zealous ministers who spoke in favour of Jacobite aims immediately within the rising itself. It argues that Jacobite clergy in the Forty-five were collectively a moderate, if not overtly effective, grounding element that helped to convey the ideologies of pro-Stuart schemes.
