I Have Called You Friends: Reflections on Reconciliation in Honor of Frank T. Griswold

Throughout his nine-year term as Presiding Bishop of the Episcopal Church, Frank T. Griswold has taught about reconciliation: conversation, conversion, communion-all grounded in Jesus’ meeting us in all our particularities and isolation and calling us into the greater friendship of the Holy Spirit. It seemed natural, then, that a book of essays in honor of the Presiding Bishop at the end of his term should take reconciliation as its theme. Each of the contributors focuses in his or her own way on reconciliation and our participation in what God has already accomplished through Christ.
