Ten essays considering the 1963 report Conversations between the Church of England and the Methodist Church, published by the Marcham Manor Press in 1963 with Packer as editor (63 pages). The report proposed a scheme of union between the two churches; the essays give evangelical Anglican comment on it. Packer edited a further volume on the same scheme, Fellowship in the Gospel, in 1968. The individual contributors were not seen for this record.
