Can the Church Renew Itself from Within

“The basic presupposition of the principle of internal renewal is that churchmen, united about the center of their faith in Jesus Christ, become more fully and effectively conscious of their participation in a worshiping community which is at the same time responsively entrusted with the task of reconciling the whole of life in the world to the God and Father of their Lord Jesus Christ. This affirmation carries with it explicit denial of any ultimately constructive contribution to the church's renewal from non-Christian groups.”
