When he was Dean of Perth Cathedral, Australia, Shepherd claimed in his 2008 Easter sermon (video below),
“It’s important for Christians to be set free from the idea that the resurrection was an extraordinary physical event, which restored to life Jesus’s original earthly body. The resurrection of Jesus ought not to be seen in physical terms, but as a new spiritual reality.”
Shepherd succeeds Bernard Ntahoturi, who stood down following accusations of sexual misconduct.
