    • Hampton Court Conference, 1604
      • A discussion over Puritan reforms, with bishops and Anglicans present
      • Mostly amicable
        • Except when a Puritan mentioned Presbyterians and James responded with "No bishops, no king"
      • Achievements
        • Agreed that there should be a priest for each Parish
        • New English bible that was published in 1611

        • Statement of basic beliefs of the English Church, to which all ministers must swear agreement
      • accepting the services in the Prayer Book
    • Richard Bancroft and George Abbot
      • Bancroft: Archbishop of Canterbury (1604-1910)
        • Very much against Puritans while James wanted to avoid open conflict
