Ecclesiology for a Global Church: A People Called and Sent (Theology in Global Perspectives) by Richard R. Gaillardetz

This is written from a liberal Roman Catholic perspective, so it's of fairly limited usefulness personally. Though it's been instructive for me to encounter that perspective, I'd be glad to read something more traditional/institutional for comparison's sake. The examples drawn from Latin American, African, and Asian settings are interesting and refreshingly concrete (i.e. they don't seem to be just rhetorical flourishes).
