God's Church in the World: The Gift of Catholic Mission

God's Church in the World: The Gift of Catholic Mission presents a confident and joyful assertion of the Catholic character of Christian mission and its sacramental nature, exploring the transforming role the Catholic tradition can play in evangelism.

A range of outstanding contributors explore the gifts that the Catholic tradition - formed by a conviction that the presence of Christ in the Eucharist intensifies and motivates an awareness of the sacramental presence of Christ in the world - can bring to the church's engagement with the world.

Chapters include:

- Mission and the Life of Prayer
- Mission and the Sacraments
- Catholic Mission in Practice
- The Virgin Mary and Mission
- Vocation and Mission
- The Sacraments as Converting Ordinances
- Social Justice and Growth in Anglo-Catholic Churches
- Reflections on Scripture and Catholic Mission
- Catholic Mission: Historical Perspectives

The contributors represent the breadth of Catholic traditions and identities in the Church of England today.
