Scope and content
Congratulates Bezzant on his appointment at Liverpool Cathedral. He be greatly missed in Oxford, but D sure he right to seek wider experience before call comes to return, as it probably will. Bishop of Liverpool will not wish to hold B's modernism in check. Over 40 years ago D went straight from German University to begin ministry in slums of Liverpool - he found then that liberal theology is compatible with a Gospel of saving power. People say they can be calmly intellectual but have no message for common man - B's ministry in Liverpool help to prove to world that this is not so.
