- Notes
- "[B]y Albert C. Outler".
- "Given as [1955] Richard Lectures at the University of Virginia in Charlottesville, Virginia".
- "This book seeks to stress three points: the Christian community; the continuity of this community in history; and the centrality, in this community and this history, of Jesus Christ -- God's 'tradition' to human history which redeems it. Such a perspective as this, I believe, will allow us then to consider both the nature of the unity we seek -- a perennial, yet presently crucial, concern of the ecumenical movement -- and the right means and spirit in which to move forward toward it". -- Preface, p. x.
- Includes bibliographical references.
