Publisher's Synopsis
The challenge before the Episcopal Church in the United States and the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America is one of careful study and evaluation of the work and recommendations of this dialogue.... The work of this series of dialogues offers possibilities to these two churches, and to all churches committed to the ecumenical movement, to move beyond their present separation and disunity toward full communion, but not structural merger. It is in this spirit that the dialogue offers its work to the churches.
