Description: THE QUEST FOR CHRISTIAN UNITYWhere the American Churches Stand ... A Fifty Year Survey by Robert S. Bilheimer Size: 7 1/2 in. x 5.25 in. 181 pages. A Haddam House Book published by Association Press, copyright 1952 with no other dates given, however, this is a "selection of the Religious Book Club" according to the dust jacket. From the Religious Book Club Bulletin review on the jacket flaps: "Mr. Bilheimer's first important service is to give a clear historical picture both of how we got our separate denominations and of how their separateness is now being overcome by the new pattern of cooperation. He then goes on to describe what has happened during the last fifty years in changing the ecclesiastical climate and fostering the kind of unity--expressed in the National Council of Churches and the World Council--which is possible through fellowship in a common witness and common tasks.... "He is sure that the most significant advance is on the pathway of cooperation--in joining hearts and hands and minds at every possible point.... "He is conscious of the disagreements as well as of the agreements. He is keenly interested in studying the divergent conceptions of the nature of the Church, as held in varying historic traditions...." NOTES FROM THE BOUNTIFUL BOOKSHELVES' STAFF: To the best of our ability, it is our goal to provide books for sale that enrich the life and character of the readers, whether it be by teaching, broadening the human experience, or recreating the soul and spirit. We attempt to choose those that align with our values of good and godlike character and morality in living. Many of our books come from sources who we believe share our same values, but others do not, and even though we try to screen all the books we sell to know the gist of what they are about, and get an idea about the intent and character of the author, it is impossible for us to always be sure that every book we list comes completely up to our standards, since we cannot possibly read every page of every book.
