Synopsis "To Love Your Neighbour's Church as Your Own: A Manifest for Christian Unity"
"Divisions among Christians are a scandal. There is no other word for it: a scandal!" These words are from Pope Francis during an audience in 2015 and refer to a reality that obscures the good news of Jesus to a world in need of healing. Christians are divided. Does a divided Church have any real credibility? Is the unity of the Church possible? Is it realistic to hope for the visible unity of the Church on this side of eternity?After spending much of his life praying and writing about things pertaining to these questions, Peter Halldorf shines a light on the question that matters most to Jesus Himself: The unity of His children, that they would be one. With pastoral care, he writes about the personal testimonies and lives that has exemplified what it practically means to love your neighbour's church as your own, testimonies of sacrificial love and radiant hope. Inspired by the examples of faith in the first part of the book the author doesn't shy away from facing the stumbling blocks that the Church needs to acknowledge in order to fulfil the prayer of Jesus. In the second part of the book, he tackles the questions surrounding the primacy of the pope in such a way that Orthodox, Roman Catholics and Protestant Christians might be able to find common ground while retaining their personality. The book suggests that it is in recognizing the differences in each other that we discover who we are, broken yet healed in the mystery of the cross. Five hundred years into the Reformation, this book gives a glimpse of holy hope, that a 'miracle of unity' in the worldwide Church is still possible.
