What is The Anglican Planet ?

The Anglican Planet or TAP seeks to serve the Anglican Church of Canada as a source of intellectual, biblical and spiritual renewal. We have top-notch Canadian writers and a first-class editorial board. Although we receive our mail in Toronto, our staff lives coast to coast, and is in touch with all of Canadian Anglicanism.

We try to do three things. First, we root ourselves in the best of the Anglican tradition. Through our TAPintotheWord section, we delve deeply into scripture to see what it has for us in 21st Century Canada. And we look back to see how theologians in the past have considered the questions that we are presented with today.

Second, we look to see what God the Holy Spirit is doing in our world today. Our OntheFrontline section highlights innovative ministry initiatives in the Canadian Church. Yet, as our name implies, we pay close attention to news from around the world. Informative articles and insightful editorials help our readers to locate themselves within the Global Anglican Communion.

Third, TAP works hard to paint a positive vision for the future of Anglicanism in Canada and abroad. Our EdibleThoughts bring the best Anglican thinkers around the world into the homes of everyday Christians. Theologians like J.I. Packer, John Stott, and George Sumner give us wise counsel as we discern the way forward together.

TheAnglicanPlanet is not an official journal of any single organization or ecclesiastical body within the Anglican Communion, and has an independent editorial policy.

Review "New Anglican newspaper promotes conservative voice"

"The response has just been incredible. From coast to coast we have received e-mails [from readers] saying they never dreamed it was possible to like an Anglican paper," says Harris. "We've helped conservatives across the country feel like they are not alone."

"Whenever there is a community that doesn't have much of a face and doesn't have much of a voice, it's either trivialized, marginalized, ignored or distorted," says news editor Sue Careless from her home base in Toronto.

"Any kind of movement must have its own media if it is going to go anywhere. The orthodox in the Anglican Church in Canada need their own voice, need their own face. There's a whole community out there. And I don't think they are being well served by the Anglican Journal."
