Description

One, holy, catholic, and apostolic: these marks have distinguished orthodox Christianity since the fifth century. Today, however, the church is known by many other characteristics; e.g., it is prayerful, intellectual, catechetical, biblical, ecological, and sacramental. In this timely book, William Madges and Michael Daley invite over forty authors and theologians to reflect on both the traditional and contemporary marks of the Church. (back cover).
