    As a priest involved in attempts to bring biblical renewal to TEC from 1975, deeply involved in the events of 1997 to 2012, and caring for the cause of Christ Jesus in truth, I am concerned that many half truths (and some falsehoods) are being circulated about the collapse of the AMiA. I am particularly concerned about slander of those who have died in the Lord. Working under Archbishop Moses Tay from 1998, and living in Pawleys Island from 1994 to 2000, and being a friend of Chuck Murphy from 1985, and active in the global Anglican Family as a missionary with NAMS from 1993, and preaching Bob Duncan’s consecration in 1996, and hiring Thad Barnum to come to Pawleys and work with NAMS, gives me a perspective. I am also a PhD Historian.
    I would appreciate a friendly conversation with whomever is behind this site. Is that possible?
