The vision of John Paul II - Assessing his thought and influence
The Vision of John Paul II assesses the writings, work, and ecclesial vision of this long-serving pontiff. Moving beyond the scope of so many other books on John Paul II, this volume seeks to fill a gap by focusing on his lasting influence on pressing issues facing the church today: social justice, women's roles, collegiality, ecumenism, and interreligious dialogue. This accessibly written volume, with numerous contributions from internationally known and respected scholars, allows readers to engage with a variety of viewpoints and to understand the ways in which the legacy of John Paul II continues to impact today's church.
