Fourteen Theses with Text and Commentary:
(This consolidates the serial posts over the past weeks. It is the author’s hope that this essay may inform some readers, encourage prayer for the upcoming GAFCON IV meeting, and give hope to many Anglicans who are troubled about the present state of the Anglican Communion and hoping for a better future. – ed)

I was glad when they said to me, “Let us go to the house of the LORD!” Our feet have been standing within your gates, O Jerusalem! Jerusalem, built as a city that is bound firmly together, to which the tribes go up, the tribes of the LORD, as was decreed for Israel, to give thanks to the name of the LORD. (Psalm 122:1-4)
Prefatory Note
I originally addressed the “Fourteen Theses” to the Gafcon Primates as they prepared for the upcoming Global Anglican Future Conference (GAFCON IV) in Kigali, Rwanda on 17-21 April, 2023. As I expounded on the original theses, I amended them somewhat to include a parallel and overlapping group of Global Anglicans represented by the Global South Fellowship (formally the Global South Fellowship of Anglican Churches or GFSA). I have been involved with both these groups over the years and believe they have a joint destiny in reviving, reforming and reordering the Anglican Communion. SN
