Publisher’s Letter For August 2008By Robert Ellsberg - Publisher August 15, 2008 - We were pleased to receive news that this year's Pax Christi Book Award has gone to Jon Sobrino, the Jesuit theologian from El Salvador, for his most recent book, No Salvation Outside the Poor. It elaborates many of his familiar themes, once again articulating the meaning of the gospel in a world that is "gravely ill," a world in which the fate of the poor provides an indispensable test for the authenticity of Christian faith and witness. His title, playing provocatively with the traditional phrase, extra ecclesia nulla salus, makes his point quite clear. |
