The Lambeth Conference: theology, history, polity and purpose – A review January 11, 2021 by Fulcrum Paul Avis and Benjamin M. Guyer (eds)The Lambeth Conference. Theology, history, polity and purpose This year sees the latest instance of the Lambeth Conference, the decennial gathering of the bishops of the Anglican Communion. The singular designation is important, as the editors of this timely volume note: to speak of the Lambeth Conference as a continually existing thing, rather than a sequence of conferences, is to say something particular about its status as one of the four Instruments of Communion which hold the Communion together.
