Curious clergy and lay voices chart the Church of England's evolving parishes, shortages, and future.

In an era of declining congregations and shifting faith landscapes, a small group of curious clergy and laity set out to explore the current state of the Church of England. What began as an informal inquiry soon grew into a compelling collection of reflections, research and raw testimony.

How to Save the Church of England traces the evolution of the parish system, how it grew into a recognizable pattern and why parishes suddenly became huge benefices. It also explores the causes of clergy shortages, examines changes in ordination and Church finance, and considers the cultural impact of waning religious education. But the heart of the book lies in the voices of the people - from clergy (active and retired) and lay leaders to occasional churchgoers 'on the fringe' - offering honest and often surprising insights into what the Church means to them today.

Far from an attack on ecclesiastical leadership, this is a candid, sometimes humorous, and sincere attempt to listen, understand and ask: what future lies ahead for the Parish Church?
