===Lambeth Conference, 1908=== In July and August 1908 Davidson presided over the fifth [[Lambeth Conference]] of bishops from the world-wide Anglican communion;<ref>Bell (Volume I), p. 559</ref> 241 bishops were present.<ref name=eb/> The chief subjects of discussion were: the relations of faith and modern thought; the supply and training of the clergy; education; foreign missions; revision and "enrichment" of the Prayer-book; the relation of the church to "ministries of healing" such as [[Christian Science]]; the questions of marriage and divorce; organisation of the Anglican Church; and reunion with other churches.<ref name=eb>{{cite EB1911|wstitle=Lambeth Conferences|last=|first=|page=}}</ref> Public interest focused on the bishops' desire for Christian unity. The resolutions showed a will for reunion, but a caution in taking any step towards the nonconformists that might destroy the possibility of ultimate reunion with the Roman Catholic or [[Eastern Orthodox Church|Orthodox]] churches.<ref name=to/>
