Michael Wigglesworth was a Puritan minister and a renowned preacher. Little did his contemporaries know that Wigglesworth was also tormented by recurring homoerotic urges that brought him a deep sense of his own depravity. Through journalling, Wigglesworth left an extremely rare record of the interior life of a seventeenth-century Puritan minister who harboured strong passions towards other men. Highlighting Wigglesworth’s adherence to the tradition of Protestant conversion and the practice of Puritan diary-keeping, this book argues that journalling despair with his same-sex experience was itself Wigglesworth’s pursuit of divine remedy.

The most fundamental question in existence is this: who is God? The answer to this question will define everything concerning you, and the world you live in. God has revealed himself to us, and he reveals to us his utter perfection. That is beautiful. This book is aimed to be a basic introduction to the doctrine of God, and particularly, the assurance his nature brings to us. When times have been hard for me, personally and in my job as a pastor, it has been refreshment in the nature of God that has been of immense benefit. Whether we have good or bad relationships with our fathers, seeing God as who he is: a perfect Father, is guaranteed to lift our souls beyond our limited, subjective circumstances. Let your soul sing as you discover, or are refreshed in, the perfection of our heavenly Father!
Those authorized to minister in the Church of England, whether as ordained or lay ministers, are expected to teach and act in accordance with the Church of England’s doctrine. However, many of those who are currently exercising ministry in the Church of England, or who are being trained for ministry, are unclear about what the Church of England’s doctrine is, and why it matters that they should adhere to it.
In order to address this situation, the Latimer Trust is producing a new series of short books on doctrine which are designed to introduce various key aspects of the doctrine of the Church of England. The purpose of Deep Roots is to introduce the series as a whole. It does this by explaining what doctrine is, the nature of the doctrinal authorities accepted by the Church of England, and why it is important for both ministers (and Christians in general) to adhere to what is taught by these doctrinal authorities.
This is a book for existing ministers, those in training for ministry and ordinary lay Christians who want a concise but reliable answer to the question ‘What is doctrine and why does it matter?’

What is orthodoxy? In recent controversies in the Church of England and in the wider Anglican Communion, those who insist that the Church's traditional teaching about marriage and celibacy cannot be altered are increasingly described as 'orthodox', a claim that has been disputed on the ground that orthodoxy is defined by the great creeds and confessions of the Church, none of which mentions the subject.
This briefing argues that orthodoxy extends well beyond what the creeds and confessions state. It is rooted in the mind of Christ which is revealed to us in Holy Scripture and encompasses every aspect of life.
