Sermon
At the end of last year there was feverish speculation over what the press termed the "race" to become the new Archbishop of Canterbury. The media had soon sussed out who were the front runners and bookies were quickly offering odds on any candidate who looked as if he might have half a chance.
Those bishops who were thought to be in the running found their lives scrutinised in minute detail in the mad search to find news about them, and when it became known that the Archbishop of Wales, Rowan Williams, was the chosen man, the media was full of sensational stories about him.
