These churches are drawing hundreds of young worshippers, but not without controversy. Critics argue they’re draining life from older parishes and quietly shifting Anglicanism toward a more socially conservative future. Is this bold reinvention a genuine revival—or a risky takeover reshaping the soul of the church?
