false 5621552 1 The theology of the Eucharist has long been the subject of heated debate, particularly since the Reformation. George Hunsinger's book explores ways in which Christians might resolve their differences in this area. With the aim of fostering ecumenical convergence, he tackles three key issues dividing the churches about the Eucharist: real presence, Eucharistic sacrifice, and ordained ministry. Hunsinger, a Protestant theologian in the Reformed tradition, brings Eastern Orthodox views more systematically into the discussion than has been common in the West. He also discusses the social significance of the Eucharist. His detailed conclusion summarizes and clarifies the argument as a whole with an eye to explaining how the views proposed in the book could lead the churches, beginning with the Reformed church, closer to the day when obstacles to Eucharistic sharing are overcome. 5792948 29 9 2008 The Eucharist and Ecumenism: Let us Keep the Feast (Current Issues in Theology) total:1|4:1| 1 4 3 1 4 0 false false Mon Aug 31 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Tue Sep 15 12:29:03 -0700 2009 Tue Sep 15 12:32:39 -0700 2009 more...]]> 0 0 false false Wed Jun 10 19:20:04 -0700 2009 Wed Jun 10 19:20:51 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Fri Apr 17 22:13:54 -0700 2009 Fri Apr 17 22:13:54 -0700 2009 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=5621552
