Faith, Hope, and Love

This is liturgical theology at its best, showing how for faith, ethics, and eschatology, classic Christian worship remains essential.

~Maxwell E. Johnson, Professor of Liturgical Studies, University of Notre Dame

Geoffrey Wainwright is a master of bringing together complex elements into a new combination that reveals fresh theological and ecumenical insights. In the modest span of these lectures, he touches on a wide range of topics with his characteristic learning and wisdom. They show again that ecumenical theology still has much to teach us about the faith we share.

~Michael Root, Ordinary Professor of Systematic Theology, The Catholic University of America

In the midst of what some are calling an 'ecumenical winter,' Faith, Hope, and Love is like a burst of new life indicating there is indeed a new ecumenical spring breaking out all around us. Professor Wainwright shows us how to put into practice the words he quotes from John Wesley: 'If we cannot as yet think alike in all things, at least we may love alike.'

~Dale T. Irvin, President and Professor of World Christianity, New York Theological Seminary

Wainwright's volume is an essential read for all those committed to the unity of the body of Christ.

~Neal D. Presa, The Ecumenical Review

…Readers will find affirmation from Wainwright’s illuminating presentation and admonition from the careful way he presses the right questions with freshness, passion, and purpose.

~David Batchelder, Worship
