Description: Inter-Church Relations: Developments and Perspectives celebrates the long-lasting commitment, enthusiasm and sense of joy that Bishop Anthony Farquhar has brought to inter-Church relations over the twenty-five years of his episcopate. It discusses aspects of contemporary relations by presenting recent developments in international dialogue and networking among Churches. Cardinal Kasper, in his contribution to this work, points to `a new spirit of cooperation and understanding' among Church communities, attributing this development to the commitment and dedication of people like Bishop Farquhar. Covering various inter-Church forums and dialogues, it offers theological considerations on inter-Church relations and reflects on practical and spiritual ecumenism.

Description: What is Ecumenism? How and when did it start? What are its goals and how will they affect the future of the Christian churches? This book answers these questions and examines the remarkable story of new encounters between Orthodox, Roman Catholic, Anglican, Old Catholic, and most Protestant churches. Most of these churches have been divided for centuries over issues of theology, faith, and practice. Ecumenism seeks to reconcile these differences and to bring the churches together into a new unity based on their commonalities and their understanding of Christian faith. Here, FitzGerald traces the history of the churches and their divisions and focuses on the ways in which the Ecumenical movement began and the efforts that have been made to assist the churches in overcoming age-old strife, animosity, and misunderstanding. For centuries, Christian churches have remained divided over their doctrinal differences, but beginning in the late nineteenth century, churches and their members slowly began to emerge from their isolation. They began to abandon competition, mistrust, and misunderstanding in an effort to seek out their common interests and faith through meetings and organizations meant to bring them together. The encounters between the churches led to proposals for common prayers for unity, and for common witness in society. While not without difficulty, these encounters have fostered a renewal in Christian theology, worship, and witness, affecting all levels of church life. The process has touched Christians all over the world in various ways. FitzGerald carefully traces the history of the movement and its impact on the churches themselves, as well as the believers who attend them, making this important reading for all Christians and anyone interested in learning more about church division and efforts to restore unity.

Description: Today more and more people of different religions have the chance to meet. How should they interact with each other so that they foster mutual understanding and respect? What problems might this new world of dialogue create? Will it lead to compromising ones faith? Cardinal Francis Arinze, who has been at the forefront of the Catholic Churchs initiatives in interreligious relations for over 20 years, answers these and many other timely questions in this engaging and enlightening interview. He speaks to the veteran practitioner of interreligious dialogue as well as to the hesitant beginner. There is no more articulate or stronger voice for authentic and productive interreligious dialogue than that of Cardinal Arinze. In the face of religious extremism, increased secularism, and the inequities of globalization, collaborative action to address key global challenges is perhaps the best way for religious communities to achieve what Cardinal Arinze describes as the ultimate goal mutual encouragement in our search for God. Dr. William F. Vendley, Secretary General World Conference of Religions for Peace What Cardinal Arinze shares in this book is extremely timely and helpful for fostering greater interreligious understanding today, and for guiding religious persons in their common effort toward building peace and justice. Donald W. Mitchell Purdue University
