In a foreword, James Martin, SJ, offers context and a shared vision.\nThis year began with the joint ecumenical commemoration in Lund, Sweden, on October 31, 2016, attended by Pope Francis and members of the Lutheran World Federation and other Christian churches. Martin Marty explains how this event, and indeed all ecumenical dialogue that has happened over the past few hundred years and will happen in this coming year, represents a change of heart.\n\n“Valuable insight.” – Kathleen Norris\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1612616569\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.1612616569.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Marty, Martin E.|Martin SJ, James\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: The item shows wear from consistent use, but it remains in good condition and works perfectly.
