An Ecumenical Priesthood

Theology

“Jakob Karl Rinderknecht has proven to be one of the most important and respected voices in ecumenical relations in the post-post-conciliar church. This critical edition and translation of Karl Rahner’s An Ecumenical Priesthood not only validates this warranted reputation, but also represents an indispensable contribution to Anglophone discourse about the neuralgic themes of ministry, ordination, and sacramental theology that continue to plague our scandalous state of division within the Christian family. It belongs on every established and emerging ecumenist’s bookshelf.”

Precious Precarity

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“When (or perhaps, if) future theologians and ministers survive the crises of our day to look back on life in the 2020s, I am convinced that they will define our times in terms of a complex intersection of contributions and challenges: the needed corrective of contextual, diverse, non-Eurocentric voices in the church and academy, a rise in awareness of the impact of man-made climate change, ongoing attempts to overcome a problematic bifurcation between pastoral and systematic theology, and--likely above all--our response as a human race to the staggering numbers of people on the move. In Precious Precarity, Helen Boursier offers a gritty and textured account of a spirituality of the borderlands which weaves together many of these themes that define Christian witness in our day, one which highlights the enduring goodness to be encountered in the "badlands."”
