Overview

Father Bliss traces how the concern for ecumenism came about through uneasy tension to confidence in the true grace of catholicity. From the medieval Papacy to Trent and the open spirit of Vatican II, the history of the Church continues to shape contemporary dialogue. Catholic and Ecumenical is a solid work that also gives an up-to-date and accurate view of Catholic participation in ecumenical dialogue among the churches and with people from other faith traditions. I commend this important resource to all who pursue the high calling of Christian unity. Rev. Dr. Joan Brown Campbell, General Secretary The National Council of the Churches of Christ in the USA
