Life in the Churches
RELIGION is still an activity of a good many New Zealanders, and it is only right that the NZBS should give us some news of their doings. Few chureh people, even, know much of what goes on in other denominations, If I haye not so far gained much im-
pression of abounding Christian life from the monthly magazine, Faith and Works, it is mostly that there is so little of the programme that no composite picture has yet emerged. It will in time, probably, and it’s advisable to start a new venture modestly, Meanwhile, more vigour is shown in this year’s Christian Question-Box. The speakers abate none of the charity and large agreement shown by their predecessors last year, but they are far more forthright and even argumentative. Argument, besides being fun to listen to, is at least a sign of lifeeven though we can be grateful that the voleanic element in church history, referred to by the Rev. W. P. Temple when he commented in Faith and Works on the proposal to have Bishops in Scotland, erupts less fatally than of old.
