Anyone involved in ecumenical dialogue . . . desires that growing theological consensus might bear fruit in the daily pastoral life of flesh-and-blood communities. Bruce Myers reflects on the direct link between theological education, . . . fellowship, and collaborative ministry. This book should invite theological educators to recommit to the priority of ecumenical formation, and all those in ministry to understand more deeply their role in forming Christian communities committed to growing in unity within the one church of Christ. --Catherine Clifford, Saint Paul University As a theological educator who has served on ecumenical dialogues that have produced significant agreement, I have long suspected that the missing link between ecumenical theology and the life of the churches is theological education. Bruce Myers has conclusively exposed this missing link. This book on the role of theological education in the reception of ecumenical agreements takes its rightful place alongside other significant work on ecumenical reception. --John Gibaut, Thorneloe University In the post-pandemic church, collaboration across denominational lines will be more necessary than ever. This book offers a compelling new model for clergy education that is both formative and transformative. Out of his expertise as ecumenical officer and bishop in the Anglican Church of Canada, Myers offers a vision for an online delivery system and a national curriculum that will educate and equip clergy to become engaged and engaging ecumenical practitioners in local ministries. --Mitzi J. Budde, Virginia Theological Seminary
