About the Book

Evangelical in spirit, ecumenical in breadth and biblical in depth, Donald G. Bloesch's sixth volume in the Christian Foundations series engages in a critical dialogue with historical and contemporary views of ecclesiology, including church authority, worship and church reunion.

Book Synopsis

In this volume, Donald Bloesch explores with charity and balance the contours of ecclesiology. He forthrightly takes up the most controversial of issues ranging from matters of church authority, the sacraments and worship, the church's place in the plan of salvation, the church and the kingdom of God, to the issue of church reunion. Evangelical in spirit, ecumenical in breadth and biblical in depth, Bloesch's theology of the church calls for reformation and renewal according to the Word and Spirit of God.
