Summary

This powerful, moving, and "disturbing" book looks at the contemporary issues that block the attainment of a revitalized Church--a Church united rather than fragmented, a Church tuned to justice for all rather than to provincial myopia. "A Presence That Disturbs" will engage the general reader and the specialist alike with a fresh perspective on what it means to follow Christ. 192-page paperback; 5-1/2 x 8-1/4
