Description: In this collection of favourite sermons delivered in Horsham and Berkeley, Unitarian minister Dr. Richard F. Boeke takes us on a journey in search of universal truths and the "good life." For Boeke, this journey is no mere mental theological meandering. It is his life's work, and it has led him to travel the world, forging enduring friendships based not in mutual faith, but in mutual trust and a willingness to remain open to the possibility of creating peace on this earth. In his sermons, Boeke invites us to partake of the holy mysteries of fair trade bananas, lunches with fellow spiritual quester Karen Armstrong, purifies himself under a pounding waterfall with a Shinto priest, (though in a pinch, he makes do with bathroom shower!), bemoans fundamentalists of any religion ("The Church of Some Souls"), wonders, since the body is the temple of the spirit, if ministers shouldn't have to pass regular physicals, and draws on the teachings of the great sage, Kermit the Frog. Finally, he answers our questions about God! If, as Boeke says, "To be religious is to respond to fresh challenges to your soul," you may just "get religion" in these pages.

Description: The Princeton Proposal is a landmark statement on the present situation and future possibilities of modern ecumenism. Drafted by sixteen theologians and ecumenists from various church traditions, who met over a period of three years in Princeton, New Jersey, this document seeks to steer contemporary efforts at church unity away from social and political agendas, which are themselves divisive, and back to the chief goal of the modern ecumenical movement — the visible unity of Christians worldwide, of all those who are reconciled "in one body through the cross." Since the study group that produced this statement was instituted and its participants were chosen by an independent ecumenical foundation, the Center for Catholic and Evangelical Theology, their "unofficial" work presents especially profound and creative reflection on the ecumenical task. With this report the study group members do not claim to speak for their churches, but hope to speak to all the churches out of shared concern for the founding ecumenical imperative "that they all may be one . . . so that the world may believe."

Description: The day that the people of the Democratic Republic of Congo voted, on 30 July 2006, marked the most significant election held in Africa since 1994 balloting in South Africa at the end of that nation's apartheid regime. Like South African's, Congolese voted in their millions, walking up to 50 kilometres each way to the polling stations. The election brought to a close 130 years of foreign invasions, colonialism, exploitation of vast mineral wealth, dictatorship and the consequences of two recent wars that cost 4.3 million lives in just over five years, the most deadly conflict since World War II. Few in the rest of the world were aware of these conditions. The western media largely ignored this region, while the international community and the African continent seemed helpless to stop the destruction. Civilians, especially women and children, made up the majority of victims. The World Council of Church's general secretary, Samuel Kobia of Kenya, sent a hard-hitting pastoral message to the 65 million people of Africa's third largest country on the eve of these first elections held in more than 40 years. Kobia promised to accompany them as they move toward a difficult and unknown future. He also dispatched the author of this report to help break the silence surrounding the Democratic Republic of Congo. "Africa's Broken Heart" is the story of a people who must no longer be ignored. This is a passionate and painful book, yet it is laced with narratives of hope and heroism.

Description: What is Ecumenism? Is Christian unity a legitimate hope or just a pious illusion? The aim of this book is to analyze the real obstacles that stand in the path to unity and to propose solutions, where these are possible. Distinguished authors from the main Christian denominations offer a unique insight into the problem of Christian divisions and the relationships between Christian communities. This work is not a politically correct exercise in diplomacy; rather, it informs the reader about the actual state of the ecumenical dialogue.
