A real loss to Cambridge and to the Church of England.<br /><br />Patrick<br />Patrick Comerfordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00558394038241172440noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6561249004966522983.post-11888724756302601562014-07-01T12:14:23.336+01:002014-07-01T12:14:23.336+01:00Thank you for this piece.

John and I had been working closely on a new book on Anglican Social theology to which he had contributed a characteristically incisive assessment of the newly emerging strands within Anglican social thought. It is particularly poignant that the book arrived from the printer this morning. John was always a joy to work with - with a very rare combination of virtues, having a superb intellect at the same time as being a thoroughly lovable and decent human being - not an inevitable combination even among theologians. He reminded me of the young Rowan Williams and I am sure that, had he lived, he would have made a comparable contribution to the church and to theology.<br /><br />May he rest in peace and rise in glory.<br /><br />Malcolm BrownAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
