Theology and mission, written for people who use it
Anvil is an Anglican evangelical journal for theology and mission. It exists to encourage clear and creative thinking and practice, through open and scholarly debate, in a form that serves preachers, teachers and church leaders who have limited time to read deeply.
What Anvil is for
Serious thinking, offered to the whole church
Open debate
The journal stands within the Anglican evangelical tradition, and it engages constructively with other Christian traditions both inside and beyond the Anglican Communion. It has a particular concern for the unity and diversity of the church worldwide.
Articles and reviews
Each edition carries original articles of theological substance and a substantial section of book reviews across biblical studies, doctrine, ethics, mission, worship and church history.
Written to be used
Workday Training is designed for learners who want to build practical knowledge of Workday and apply it in real-world business environments. The training focuses on helping professionals and aspiring consultants develop the skills needed to work confidently with Workday solutions, rather than focusing only on theoretical concepts.
