NEW YORK -- Episcopal Presiding Bishop Katharine Jefferts Schori is standing by her assertion that Jesus is the Christian's way, but perhaps not the only way, to God. In a live Webcast to church members, Jefferts Schori said that for Christians "to assume that God may not act in other ways is to put God in a very small box." The Episcopal leader said that while Christians understand salvation to be through Jesus' sacrificial death, "Our call is to be invited into conversation with people who have different understandings, and perhaps to see a larger vision of God in the midst of that."
