Barth, Bonhoeffer, and Bulgakov

As you may or may not know, I hate that the Church is divided. We are supposed to be one body. I completely refute the idea that the "true" church is invisible. I am sorry Luther, but thats simply unpauline. Paul wished for the  Church to be united in Spirit and in Mind. Most Christians seem unconcerned with this problem. Many theologians are also unconcerned. Over the past year, this has become a major concern. Indeed ecumenism has probably become the driving force of my theology.  Today I posted a quote by Serigius Bulgakov as a facebook status. It read: The Absolute, God, without any relation to creation is a conventional abstraction. Scott Christensen replied to it saying, "i think barth could have said that, too " I completely agree. 


I am writing this to pose a question to anyone, perhaps myself. Is there a way that Barth, Bonhoeffer, and Bulgakov can be faithfully read such that their theologies are complementary. If this is true, is there a way that these there can provide the bridge between East and West thus ending a 1000+ year divide? Is this possible? Are Christians willing to seek this re-unification. Do we wish to be in communion with our Sisters and Brothers who wear another adjective before Christian? Anyone willing to do that work?
