This book is a collection of essays in celebration of the life and ministry of Bishop Keith Rayner (1929–2025). The title Leadership in a Time of Change sums up a widely held view of Bishop Keith’s leadership in three Dioceses of the Anglican Church of Australia, especially as Archbishop of Adelaide (1975–1990) and Melbourne (1990–1999), and as Primate from 1989 to 1999.
From the Foreword by The Rev’d David Richardson AO OBE:
“Bishop Keith’s many contributions to the national Anglican Church included his support for Indigenous reconciliation, the poor and marginalised, and his role in progressing women’s ordination. On an international level, his contributions to the Lambeth Conferences in 1988 and 1998 were especially significant, as was his long presidency of the Christian Conference of Asia. Keith Rayner was a great man, an intellectual giant, a man of profound faith, and a sympathetic and self-effacing bishop and leader. As Hamlet said of his father, ‘He was a man, take him for all in all, I shall not look upon his like again’. If the recollections in this book can capture a little of the story of a deeply committed Christian priest and bishop who in his long life helped to shape national and international attitudes within Church and society it will have played its part.”
