Reverence in bishop is more natural (5)
I believe the answer is:
rawer
'more natural' is the definition.
('raw' can be a synonym of 'natural')
'reverence in bishop' is the wordplay.
'reverence' becomes 'awe' ('awe' can be a synonym of 'reverence').
'in' indicates putting letters inside.
'bishop' becomes 'rr' (abbreviation for Right Reverend).
'awe' put within 'rr' is 'RAWER'.
'is' acts as a link.
