Drawing upon the methodology developed in his Dynamics of Theology
(1990) and exemplified in Jesus, Symbol of God (1999), Roger
Haight, in this magisterial work, achieves what he calls an
historical ecclesiology, or ecclesiology from below. In contrast to
traditional ecclesiology from above, which is abstract, idealist
and ahistorical, ecclesiology from below is concrete, realist, and
historically conscious. In the first of two volumes, Haight charts
the history of the church's self-understandings from the origins of
the church in the Jesus movement to the late middle ages. In volume
2, Haight develops a comparative ecclesiology based on the history
and diverse theologies of the worldwide Christian movement from the
Reformation to the present. While the ultimate focus of the work
falls on the structure of the church and its theological
self-understanding, it tries to be faithful to the historical,
social, and political reality of the church in each period.
