Summary

How can the church be the locus and space of God'¿¿s salvific act in the world? The essays in this publication attempt to answer this fundamental question by suggesting that faith in the one holy, catholic, and apostolic church not only provides theological commonality among Lutherans, but also helps realize the social aspect of our faith.
