A Communion in Faith and Love Elisabeth Behr-Sigel's Ecclesiology

The work of Orthodox theologian and ecumenical pioneer Elisabeth Behr-Sigel still has radical implications for how we understand being church. This copublished volume of the WCC and Volos Academy for Theological Studies feature the latest and best scholarship on the theological legacy of Behr-Sigel, her restless and searching spirit, her deep appreciation of the early church writers, her creative endurance of the assaults of wartime Europe, and her grappling with and championing of the ordination of women-all mark her as a model theologian for today. The present volume is compiled and published in the hope that current and future research will be inspired by Behr-Sigel's life and theological work, which ventured into uncharted territories, to explore further its implications for theology and especially ecclesiology." from the Foreword
