The relationship between Catholics and Evangelicals is a story of power plays and politics, misunderstandings and bitterness. Battle lines from past wars--sometimes literal wars--are still drawn, even if only in the realm of ideas and beliefs. This is the inherited filter through which each group is taught to view the other. And this filter has become an invisible self-defeating barrier; thus, in a post-Iron Curtain era, Christians still maintain a "Stained Glass Curtain" of mutual suspicion and mistrust.

Produktbeschreibung
The relationship between Catholics and Evangelicals is a story of power plays and politics, misunderstandings and bitterness. Battle lines from past wars--sometimes literal wars--are still drawn, even if only in the realm of ideas and beliefs. This is the inherited filter through which each group is taught to view the other. And this filter has become an invisible self-defeating barrier; thus, in a post-Iron Curtain era, Christians still maintain a "Stained Glass Curtain" of mutual suspicion and mistrust. Addressing the claim that Catholicism preaches another gospel, Father Dimitri Sala demonstrates in The Stained Glass Curtain that many -- even Catholics -- don't know official Catholic teachings! When it comes to the basic message of salvation, that teaching, and the preaching of Evangelicals, do not differ. Combining his own testimony, authoritative Catholic sources, and passages from the Bible, he boldly invites you to learn the truth and embrace the reality of our common heritage. The book has been given the Imprimatur of the Catholic Church. An Imprimatur is an official declaration of ecclesiastical authority that the material in the publication is free from doctrinal and moral error. Fr. Dimitri is a Franciscan priest, ordained in 1984. Based in Chicago, he is not the pastor of a local church, but has a full-time apostolic ministry combined with a life of prayer. Fr. Dimitri has conducted retreats, days of reflection, apostolic leaders' workshops, healing services, missions and revivals, and in the past, a summer street ministry. With his trained team he has ministered to clergy and laity of many ethnicities, ages, and denominations. He has also been a featured speaker in diocesan, regional, national, and international conferences, and has appeared on Christian media. The ministry has also extended itself through publication of a pamphlet, and articles on evangelization and ecumenism themes. All his life as a friar, Fr. Dimitri has had relationships with Christians of various denominations; this eventually led him to involvement in different countries with reconciliation efforts between Evangelical Protestants and Catholics. His book is the product of these years of "Crossing the Evangelical-Catholic Divide to Find Our Common Heritage". More information can be found on the book's website, www.TheStainedGlassCurtain.com.
