Turn to God -- Rejoice in Hope: Bible studies and meditations


Turn to God -- Rejoice in Hope: Bible studies and meditations The Eighth Assembly of the World Council of Churches, to be held from 3 to 14 December in Harare, Zimbabwe, will come at a special moment: the 50th Anniversary of the WCC's 1948 founding in Amsterdam. The theme chosen for this jubilee gathering, "Turn to God -- Rejoice in Hope", evokes a wealth of biblical imagery for commemorating the past with an eye to the challenges the churches face together at the dawn of a new millennium.

Designed to help the churches use the Bible to prepare for the Harare Assembly, this two-part resource book, suitable for either personal reflection or group study, includes seven Bible studies exploring facets of the churches' life together ecumenically and six meditations developing facets of the theme itself. (74 pp., WCC, Geneva, 2nd printing, 1998.)
