Publisher's Synopsis
This publication provides a practical overview of global ecumenism and reconciliation. The globally reconciling-conciliar Church is on the path - the via transformativa - toward unity through action and reflection, guided by the gospel visions of justice and peace. Fernando Enns analyzes what has been learned in recent decades on the testing grounds of ecumenical theory and practice, then demonstrates how the new era of the WCCs action-oriented programs produce ongoing, diverse ecclesial efforts toward social and spiritual transformation.
