Rather than simply offering a compendium of perspectives on each issue that arises, the authors seek to teach and model thinking theologically, with the grain of scripture and ecclesial reflection, about the Church. The chapters are peppered with two to three excurses per chapter which consider a particularly pertinent issue that arises from the doctrine's development (e.g. the move from Jesus to the Church, schism and the rise of denominations, sacramental mediation) or contemporary concerns (e.g. the question of other religions, contemporary ecumenical questions, the emerging church). While the overall tone and content of the book articulate and invite discussion on the problematics of ecclesiology, these excurses will provide ample opportunity to examine and (where appropriate) untangle ecclesiological knots."--Publisher's description.Guides for the perplexedChurchHistory of doctrinesTheology, DoctrinalChurchHistory of doctrines.Theology, Doctrinal.230262Jenson Matt1499586Wilhite David E599914MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910785114003321The church3725711UNINA
