Book Description
With immediate impact and deep creativity, Catherine Keller offers this brief and unconventional introduction to theological thinking, especially as recast by process thought. Keller takes up theology itself as a quest for religious authenticity. Through a marvelous combination of brilliant writing, story, reflection, and unabashed questioning of old shibboleths, Keller redeems theology from its dry and predictable categories to reveal what has always been at the heart of the theological enterprise: a personal search for intellectually honest and credible ways of making sense of the loving mystery that encompasses even our confounding times.
Editorial Reviews
Review
“At last: deeply Christian theology that is genuinely credible, relevant, important, and also accessible. Catherine Keller’s new work is for students and lay people – and for that vast company of people who have given up on the church but still care!”
