Episkope and Episcopacy and the Quest for Visible Unity: Two Consultations (Faith and Order Paper) - Softcover
Synopsis
Agreement on the ministry is one of the most elusive facets of the search for the visible unity of the church. And among the differences which separate churches in this area, one of the hardest to resolve is how the ministry of oversight or episkope is exercised.

The papers included in this volume come out of two consultations held in 1997.
