- "But the greatest contribution of this articulation of a `good and generous faith' is its challenge to the frequent assumption that Christians must choose between dialogue and evangelism as the goal in engaging those of other faiths. Cracknell recognizes that the possibility of conversion is always resident in authentic dialogue, and argues that such dialogue is the most appropriate approach to evangelism/mission for our time." -- Foreword, pp. viii-ix.

- "The new religious movements 'may be constructive or destructive, can lead to a new freedom or new enslavement, can depersonalize individuals or reveal their fuller human potential, can depend on religious faith or on new rituals equivalent to magic and the occult, can reclaim the drug addict and encourage virtuous lives or exhibit immoral and demonic features'. But if we are to follow the way of Jesus, that of 'barrier-breaking and not barrier-building', these movements must challenge us to dialogue -- a dialogue that does not exclude criticism. These and related issues were discussed at a consultation jointly sponsored by the World Council of Churches and the Lutheran World Federation. The book brings together the papers presented at the consultation and its findings and recommendations". -- back cover.
