Recently, national headlines have announced the sexual crimes of Catholic priests and the ordination of an openly gay Episcopal bishop. In our day, the church is fragmented by staggering anxieties involving material stability, personal morality, and doctrinal purity. In Hope among the Fragments, Ephraim Radner reminds us that the church's shared hope is found in Scripture. Only by reading the Scriptures with Christ as the central figure can the church heal its divisions and claim its identity as a revelation of Christ himself, not merely his beleaguered "instrument."
