About this title

From Library Journal

This dictionary promises to establish itself as an indispensable reference work. It contains a wealth of information on doctrinal themes, demonstrating how the churches have converged their teachings on God, Christ, the Holy Spirit, the sacraments, and other issues. Much of the information deals with contemporary social, political, legal, and ethical issues from perspectives within the Christian faith. It is fully cross-referenced and indexed, and contains over 600 entries. This work definitely accomplishes its stated purpose, which is to take stock of the past, to interpret the present, and to look forward into the third millennium of Christian existence in the ecumenical movement. Recommended for academic and seminary libraries.
