The historical course of Christianity in the twentieth century has been strongly marked by the Ecumenical Movement and the Liturgical Movement, and often these currents for the recovery of the Church's unity and the renewal of its worship have flowed together. In this book Geoffrey Wainwright draws on his three decades of active participation in both movements to offer a theologically informed account of what has been at stake in them, what their achievements have been, and what tasks remain for them to accomplish.
This book is helpful in introducing readers to a number of themes, each of which has been developed at more depth in other works. It also stands as a record of the work of one who has made a significant contribution to both the liturgical and the ecumenical movements. * Janet Crawford, The Ecumenical Review *
Packed with learning and thirty years ecumenical experience...This is a most valuable collection, with which I am in total agreement. * Gordon s. Wakefield *
Provides further edvidence of a committed and influencial ecumenical theologian applying his method to a range of concerns...Each essay is carefully argued and integrally relates to the twin themes of liturgy and ecumenism...there can be no regrets at all that the essays have been made readily accessible between two covers. * The Expository Times *
