Catholics and Evangelicals: Do They Share a Common Future?Thomas P. Rausch Paulist Press, 2000 - 178 pages There's still much suspicion between Catholics and Evangelicals, the two largest groups of Christians. Stereotyping casts one sect as a slave to Rome, the other a slave to scripture. Who is really Christian and who is not? Who has true faith? Issues like these divide friends, co-workers, even family members when individuals convert from or to Catholicism or from or to an Evangelical church. There's been little dialogue between the two. Even that has been between only the most conservative members of each group as they unite against the mutual enemy of liberalism. This book is a step forward, dialogue between centrist Catholics and centrist Evangelicals. |
