Excerpt from Beginning at Jerusalem: Studies in Historic Communions of Christendom These sermons were delivered in response to a general and deep interest on the part of the congregation in the subject of Christian Unity. A sympathetic study of the historic communions of Christendom will contribute to an intelligent grasp of the issues involved in the endeavor to heal the divisions of the church. It will help us to gain the perspective implied in "Unity in essentials, liberty in non-essentials, charity in everything." It will reveal the force of Gregory's saying: "Things are not to be loved for the sake of places but places for good things." We have something to learn from that ancient communion whose theology bears the impress of such master spirits as Clement of Alexandria and Athanasius. The Eastern Church has never been devoid of interest for us. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
