The second address looking at Newman's theology was delivered by Revd Dr Benjamin King, Associate Professor of Church History at Sewanee University, USA.
“A bridge enables the transfer of things from one side to the other and back again. Newman was therefore a bridge, transferring a Catholic vision to Anglicanism worldwide and then bringing some of his Anglicanism with him when he became a Catholic. He may have taken the bridge in only one direction himself, but many Anglicans have followed his teachings about the Catholic roots of their Church and remained Anglican. “
Cardinal Parolin gave the opening address at 'Newman - A Celebration'.
