Ecclesiology: The Continuing Possibility of Renewal: Festschrift to Bishop Dyvasirvadam on His 60th Birthday
A festschrift to Bishop Govada Dyasirvadam, Bishop, Krishna Godavari Diocese and Deputy Moderator, Church of South India (CSI), the volume is concerned with the theological mysteries relating to the possibility of renewal in ecclesiology. The essays are on the contributions of the church to human rights and democracy and in the context of social values and environmental concerns. They involve re-reading some Christo-centric ecclesiology and ecclesiology in the context of religious extremism. They showcase emerging trends in ecumenical theology in the postcolonial context and indigenisation in Indian ecclesia. They examine the CSI eucharist liturgy and probe the significance of episcopacy for the church in India.
