In this second talk on the relationship between Christ and his Church Fr Guy looks at the profound union that between them using scriptural images such as the Vine, the Body of Christ and the Eucharist. On the external level the Church appears to be a human institution, the reality is that her nature is divine. …‘now, you together are Christ’s body; but each of you is a different part of it….’ 1 Corinthians 12: 27.

This is the final talk given by Fr Guy de Gaynesford on 12 August 2014 at Buckfast Abbey, as part of the Summer School course ‘Finding Faith through Theology’ offered by the School of the Annunciation.   For more information on the School of the Annunciation go to this link.
