Stephen Sackur talks to Bishop Martyn Mimms of the US Anglican church about whether Anglicanism is about to tear itself apart.

Over the next month, the future of the worldwide Anglican church is on the line. In July, the Archbishop of Canterbury will host the once-a-decade Lambeth conference, but hundreds of conservative bishops, opposed to the leadership's stance on homosexuality, will stay away. They are holding a rival gathering in Jordan. Bishop Martyn Minns is one of the key conservative rebels. Stephen Sackur asks him if Anglicanism is about to tear itself apart.
