Description: Marking the 500th anniversary of the Reformation in 2017, this book describes the history of Lutheran Roman Catholic relations from the sixteenth century to the present. For Lutherans, the anniversary evokes their determination and efforts to live a reformed ecclesial life. Catholics perhaps experience the commemoration of 2017 more painfully as a break in communion, as a schism in the church. This bifurcated account of differing perspectives on the anniversary of the Reformation fails to account, however, for the past fifty years of patient, intense, and collegial dialogue between Lutherans and Catholics and the deep friendships forged between them in the process. The commemoration of the Reformation can occur for the first time within an ecumenical context that reflects the progress towards reconciled unity.
