| Summary |
Both the ecumenical and interfaith movements have been active over the past several decades and have made considerable contributions to building human relationships. However, are the theological bases and the assumptions on which they were built adequate for a world that has radically changed? The collection of essays in this volume, while tracing these movements' histories, also points to the major contemporary issues they face and the new theological and spiritual orientations they need to meet the challenges of our day |
