An explorationand an affirmationof the connection between the Church's sacraments of initiation. Inviting the unbaptized to participate in the Eucharist has become an increasingly common practice in churches, as Christian communities explore ways to use the sacraments as an expression of openness and service. In this volume, sacramental theologian Shawn Strout reconsiders this trend. Arguing from church history, sacramental theology, and liturgical practice, Strout shows how baptism and the Eucharist form an indissoluble bond that is central to Christian initiation and community. The book's conclusion turns topastoral considerations and ecumenical relationships, showing the significance of the traditional ordo of baptism and Eucharist for the church. An important text for clergy, scholars, and church leaders, Bound Together: Baptism, Eucharist, and the Church offers important reflections on an issue of pressing concern.
