History of the Church Times
Church Times initially started to campaign for Anglo-Catholic principles, which it did with vigour and rudeness. But in the 1940s and ‘50s the paper began the move to broaden its outlook and coverage. It now attempts to provide balanced and fair reporting of events and opinions across the whole range of Anglican affairs.
The newspaper was a family concern until 1989, when ownership passed to Hymns Ancient & Modern. It has always been independent of the Church of England hierarchy.
