Description: In Visible Church—Visible Unity Ola Tjørhom explores central questions in current ecclesiological and ecumenical debates from the perspective of an evangelical catholicity of "the Great Tradition of the Church." Tjørhom shows how the fundamental visibility of the Church and the similarly visible nature of Church fellowship is a corrective cover against "invisible" perceptions of these entities. This theme of visibility is developed in view of the sacraments, the ministries, and the mission of the Church.

Visible Church—Visible Unity includes "Chapter 1: Toward the End of the Reformation Project? The Riddle of Protestantism," "Chapter 2: ‘The Great Tradition of the Church’—An Old Way Forward?" "Chapter 3: The Church—Mother of Faith and Priest of Creation," "Chapter 4: The Goal of Visible Unity—Reaffirming Our Commitment," and "Chapter 5: Life in the Spirit—Toward a ‘Materialist’ Spirituality."

Description: J H Oldham is the Father of the Ecumenical Movement and it is impossible to tell his story without recounting the way in which churches and missionary societies all over the world were growing closer together throughout the whole of the 20th century, going back before the Edinburgh Conference in 1910, until his death in 1969. Oldham was a major player in it all. But the book is also about much more than the churches. For Oldham every issue in society or international relations called for the challenge of the gospel, be it in education, race relations, women's suffrage, colonialism or economics. During a short period working in India around 1900 he set himself to build bridges between the Indian and missionary communities because foreignness was a hindrance to evangelism and he knew only too well that what the Indians wanted most was friends and love.

Description: The main theme of this unique book centres upon ways in which the Protestant and Catholic Churches have worked together to promote peace and reconciliation and improve community relations in Northern Ireland. It examines the various methods and schemes used by the Church leaders and members of local churches and assesses their success in providing an example of peace, reconciliation and leadership to the communities that they serve. The various contacts which have taken place since Vatican II are examined in detail, demonstrating that a timidity about issues of communal relations meant that the churches were reluctant to create national structures and rarely translated talk into action or acted upon the recommendations of commissioned reports. In contrast, the author is very positive about what Christian groups have achieved at community level. These groups found that they could work along shared communal lines if dealing with common social issues, particularly in supplying 'safe havens' in frontier zones, where sectarian killings have been concentrated. Once again they have been reluctant to address the hard issues which divide them and Power shows how very recent any move in this direction has been.

Description: The Mother of Songs -- the mother of our whole seed, bore us in the beginning. She is the mother of all races of men and the mother of all tribes. She is the mother of the thunder, the mother of the rivers, the mother of trees and all kinds of things. (Song of the Kagaba Indians of Columbia) Swami Vivekananda, the great prophet of modern Vedanta has declared that the fastest way to spiritual growth is through the worship of the Mother -- the sum total of Shakti, the dynamic feminine aspect of God or Brahman. Says the Swami, "If you want love and wisdom, worship the mother." In this book, nine goddesses or Great Mothers are examined, not for their Pagan idiosyncrasies, but for their humanism and their motherly devotion to humanity. In reality, all are one Mother, appearing to different peoples according to their traditions and understanding throughout historical time. Various comments pertinent to the divine Mother are provided by Swami Vivekananda, Vedanta sages, Christian and Sufi mystics. The Mother aspect has also had some bearing on modern psychology and psychoanalysis, especially in the context of the Jungian approach.
