Offering a powerful alternative to formal and book-based education, everyday encounters and planned interactions can become the foundation for ecumenical learning. This book explores ways in which to encourage this informal approach within formal education. It develops the idea that individuals and communities need to recognize, value and utilize effectively the learning opportunities which surround them. This book challenges readers to consider the implications of ecumenical learning and offers ideas for fostering such learning in local congregations, educational institutions and church-related groups.
