The Bishop in the Bedroom: Witnessing Episcopal Sexuality in an Age of Reform
Megan McLaughlin
a bishop should revere and constantly review the lord’s command: “let your loins be girded about, lights burning” [luke 12:35]. He who wishes to carry burning lamps in his hands along with wise virgins [Matthew 25:1–12], let him gird loins. For if no one shall see God without chastity, how much more is this true for bishop? not chaste mind body, although he may appear live, yet dead buried. —Bonizo, of Sutri piacenza
