"Ted Campbell offers those of us involved in the life of Christian
communities a rich gift." --from the Foreword by Brian McLaren
"Against some fashionable readings that magnify diversity to the
point of contradictoriness, Ted Campbell convincingly demonstrates
that the core of the Christian gospel has been formulated with
remarkable consistency across time and space. This important book
thus sets out the doctrinal basis for that unity to which, after a
century's ecumenical work on questions of 'faith and order,' the
institutionally divided churches remain called by the gospel
itself."
--Geoffrey Wainwright, Duke Divinity School
"There is much wisdom in this book...[It] should be read
attentively by all those who are committed to ecumenical
dialogue."--The Tablet
