The Trinity and ecumenical church thought: the church-event

Some hundred years from inception, the ecumenical movement is stagnating.

William C. Ingle-Gillis argues that the problem lies in modern ecumenism?s treatment of denominational Churches as provisional entities requiring reunion to be more fully Christ?s Body.

In a work unique both to ecumenical studies and to trinitarian theology, the author redefines ecclesial life from the premise that God?s essence is personhood-in-communion and that the ultimate calling of human persons is to share as fully in the divine life as Christ himself.
