Vatican II’s Decrees on the Church’s Relationship to Non-Christian Religions and Missionary Activity

Dr. Schreck explores the Council’s decrees on the Church’s relationship to non-Christian religions (Nostra Aetate) and on the Church’s missionary activity (Ad gentes divinitus). He talks about how the Catholic Church respects all that is true and holy in non-Christian religions and condemns persecution while also following Jesus’ command to make disciples and evangelize. He also address common misconceptions about these teachings.
