4 – How England Lost the Faith Under Elizabeth I

Mr. Michael Davies speaks about how England lost the Faith under Elizabeth I. The Tudor Queen Mary restored Catholicism after the Calvinizing period under Edward. She did not live long enough to complete her work. No one really knew what her half-sister Elizabeth believed when she became monarch. It was she, however, Mr. Michael Davies explains, who was really to turn England Protestant. She did so through that strange “via media” of the Anglican Church, which sought to avoid the “extremes” of Catholicism and Calvinism, only to fall under political and secular guidance.
