Publisher's Description

▼▲

This volume contains the official dialogue results and common statements issued between 1998 and 2005 by an astonishingly wide range of Christian churches and communions. Reflected here are the solid advances made by well-established dialogue partners, as well as explorations in dialogue by churches new to the dialogue process at world level. Also included is the ecclesiology text adopted by WCC member churches at their assembly in Porto Alegre, Brazil.

Editorial Reviews

Theological Studies
"The editors have rendered a great service not only to scholars but also to Christians of all stripes who are committed to the unity of the baptized. At a time when on the surface ecumenism may appear to be stalled, the book provides ample evidence that the movement toward unity continues apace."

Ecumenical Trends
"Growth in Agreement III needs to be in every ecumenist’s library."
