Humanity faces problems of an unprecedented scope: vast inequality, climate change threatening the conditions of life on this planet, and a great population migration that includes human trafficking and desperate refugees. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e What does this global plight demand of a church called to be a sign and instrument of the union of all in God? In this book, Mary Doak shows how the church must rectify its own historic failures to embody the unity-in-diversity it proclaims, especially with regard to women and Jews. Only then, and through responding to the demands of the current global crises, can we learn what it means to be the church--that is, to be a prophetic witness and public agent of the harmony that God desires and the world deeply needs.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mary Doak\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0814684505\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780814684504\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Liturgical Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/15\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 250\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.90lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.80h x 5.90w x 0.70d","brand":"Mary Doak","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43991384948991,"sku":"9780814684504","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_728e9aec-7164-492f-8c67-b9e83f11aecc.jpg?v=1683309979","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/a-prophetic-public-church-mary-doak-9780814684504","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
