This book is a modest attempt to outline a world church that is rooted in the Gospel values of love, justice and equality and open to diverse cultures, traditions and identities. Twenty thinkers from Innsbruck and Pune dare to dream together for a prophetic, compassionate and inclusive Church and are inspired by the life and thought of O. Univ.-Prof Dr Lothar Lies, SJ (1940-2008), who has received the Order "Pro Ecclesia et Pontifices"!
