While it seeks to embrace the best of the catholic tradition it is not narrowly partisan and strives to encourage the kind of thinking that rises above the prejudices that so often characterize theological debate in the churches. This series of books is intended to provide resources for the Church as it seeks to move forward into the future. Mark D.
