Episkope and Episcopacy and the Quest for Visible Unity: Two Consultations (Faith and Order Paper) - Softcover
Synopsis
Agreement on the ministry is one of the most elusive facets of the search for the visible unity of the church. And among the differences which separate churches in this area, one of the hardest to resolve is how the ministry of oversight or episkope is exercised. Recognizing that new forms of exercising oversight were emerging and new questions about episkope arising, the Fifth World Conference on Faith and Order (Santiago de Compostela, 1993) urged renewed ecumenical study of this theme. The present volume is the fruit of the resulting process of exchange and discussion undertaken by the WCC's Faith and Order Commission, focusing in two consultations - in Strasbourg, France in April 1997, and in Cret-Berard, Switzerland, in September 1997.
