March 2, 2015 by Fulcrum

About Fulcrum

Fulcrum is a point of balance, aiming to renew the moderate centre of the evangelical Anglican tradition and to generate articulate Anglicanism.

We are also a point of movement, view, controversy, and influence.

We provide original articles, detailed analysis, reliable news, a virtual library and online discussion.

We hope we are agile in mind, deep in insight, generous in orthodoxy, patient in pressure and delighting in God.
