He explores the great statements of belief as they are found in the Creed and weighs them up in relation to the challenges and complexities of life in the world today:
- God as maker of heaven and earth – can he be trusted?
- God as ‘almighty’ –what sense can we make of this in the face of natural disasters like the tsunami?
- Jesus as God’s son – few people believed this during Jesus’ lifetime; what changed everything?
- ‘He was crucified under Pontius Pilate’ – how do we understand good and evil today?
and more about how to read the Bible, what the Church should be like, death and resurrection.
Wonderful, thought-provoking phrases leap off each page and there is a characteristic depth of thoughtfulness that will reveal new dimensions each time this book is read.
