About the Show

In this thought-provoking exploration, Richard Hooker delves into the foundational aspects of the English Church, tackling the pivotal question What underpins Church laws and governance? His monumental work, ‘The Laws of Ecclesiastical Polity,’ emerges as a response to the prevailing Puritan system, which posited that only the unchanging rules laid out in Holy Scripture could govern matters of worship, discipline, and authority. Hooker challenges this notion by asserting that to truly understand Divine order, we must consider not only the scriptures but also the moral relations, historical developments, and social institutions that shape humanity. He boldly claims that human reason plays a crucial role in discerning between the unchangeable and the mutable within the biblical text, as well as distinguishing between laws of temporal and lasting significance. Hookers aim is clear to address the pressing controversies surrounding religion and governance, guiding the conscience towards sound judgment, free from prejudice and emotional bias.
