The World Council of Churches,

In the last few months, The American Spectator, Reader's Digest, and 60 Minutes have all raised questions about the World Council of Churches' support of revolution in the Third World and unrest in the United States. What is the World Council of Churches? What does it support? What does it believe? Who belongs to it? Why does it exist in the first place? This book answers these questions and more as it traces the history of this ecumenical organization from the eighteenth century to the present. - Back cover.
