Description: Recent years have seen a resurgence of interest in the doctrine of the Trinity, following a long period in which it was considered irrelevant to the rest of theology and to the challenge of Christian life. In this book, David Coffey claims that this resurgence is caused by a renewed appreciation of the fact that salvation itself has a Trinitarian structure. He argues that we cannot understand salvation without a solid understanding of the Trinity.
Coffey considers the full range of issues surrounding this central doctrine of Christian faith. Viewing the doctrine of the Trinity in its historical and ecumenical context, he seeks to arrive at a balanced vision that incorporates the insights of both the Western and the Eastern Churches. In particular, he wants to keep in sight both the immanent Trinity (the Godhead considered in itself) and the economic Trinity (that is, its role within the economy of salvation). In Coffeys own model of the Trinity, the Holy Spirit is seen as the objectivization of the mutual love of the Father and the Son. This idea is most closely associated with St. Augustine and Richard of St. Victor. Coffey, however, takes it much further, presenting it as an explanation of the origin of the Son and the Holy Spirit and of the manner of operation of the Trinity in the economy. From this model, he is also able to derive a suggestion for resolving the ecumenical problem of Filioquism vs. Monopatrism (concerning the procession of the Holy Spirit)-- the issue that has divided East from West for nearly a millennium.
Presenting a new perspective on a topic of renewed theological interest, this comprehensive study has important implications for ecumenical discussions of the Trinity.

Description: Visible unity means that churches recognize in one another a witness in word and life to the fullness of the apostolic faith which they profess. Will Christians be able one day to declare together before the world, in common confession and praise, their faith in who God is and what God has done? This text -- growing out of many years of study and consultation by theologians of various Christian traditions and from all parts of the world -- is a unique instrument for drawing the churches towards such a common confession. As a contemporary explication of the creed that emerged from the ecumenical councils of Nicea (325) and Constantinople (381) and is used in both Eastern and Western Christian liturgies, Confessing the One Faith relates the subject matter of those ancient affirmations to the challenges of today's world -- in which the language and philosophy of the fourth century sound alien to many and the basic affirmations of the Christian faith are widely questioned. The book's preface is by Jean-Marie R. Tillard, former moderator of the apostolic faith steering group of the WCC's Faith and Order.

Description: Calling for accountability, Practice What You Preach discusses ethical questions that arise in congregations and pastoral leadership. Formation of pastors, empowering leaders, resolving power struggles between clergy and laity these and other critical pastoral issues are addressed by an ecumenical group of contributors. Divided into four parts: the way the churches train their pastors; the way their pastors live; the way communities worship; and the way communities behave, this collection identifies and offers positive solutions to areas where churches are often slow to change. Each essay begins with a case describing a typical problem from wages to in-fighting and then discusses what virtues or character traits might be developed to resolve the problem effectively.

Description: Foreword by William G. Rusch How can Christians claim to hold in common one Lord, one faith, and one baptism while their churches remain splintered? Karl Barth's mature discussion of the problem of church unity in light of so much disunity deserves careful attention. Originally written in anticipation of the 1937 Edinburgh World Conference on Faith and Order, Barth's profound reflections continue to speak to today's multiplicity of churches. While some of his subject matter — the predicament of churches in Germany before World War II, for instance — may now be of mostly historical interest, his call for Christians to honestly listen to Christ through their traditions is as fresh and demanding as ever. Through this thoughtful inquiry Barth brings clarity to the nature of the relationship between the Church and the churches, calling believers everywhere to a more honest and serious confession of Christ.
