Lux Mundi: A Series of Studies in the Religion of the Incarnation is a collection of 12 essays by liberal Anglo-Catholic theologians published in 1889.[1] It was edited by Charles Gore, then the principal of Pusey House, Oxford, and a future Bishop of Oxford.[2]

Gore's essay, "The Holy Spirit and Inspiration", which showed an ability to accept discoveries of contemporary science,[3] marked a break from the conservative Anglo-Catholic thought of figures such as Edward Bouverie Pusey.[4] He subsequently remedied Christological deficiency[according to whom?] in his 1891 Bampton Lectures, The Incarnation of the Son of God.[5]

Gore and Lux Mundi came to influence the 20th-century Archbishop of Canterbury William Temple.[6]
