Book Summary
Following his widely acclaimed "Constructing Local Theologies", Robert J. Schreiter's "The New Catholicity" takes a close look at the issues that are reshaping theology today. Schreiter proposes that an expanded concept of catholicity can meet the challenge of forming a theology that can cohere between the opposites of "global" and "local". Explores in depth the paradox between the fact that Christianity becomes more universal as it becomes more local and if it tries to become universal by enforcing uniformity it will in fact be less universal.
