In Bound Together, Bos articulates the theological warrants for ecumenical and interfaith ministry at a local level. He shows how neighboring congregations of various denominations or faiths, simply by virtue of their common relationship to a surrounding community, have a theological connection that can cooperatively undergird joint ministry ventures. Bos explores the biblical, historical, and ecclesiological roots of community ministry to show how congregations or denominations of the same or different faiths can combine their resources and design a common strategy or program in response to needs and assets of their particular community.

What results is a unique resource that addresses the intrinsic relationship between social justice issues and local faith and ecumenical community building.
