Christianity Without God
Author: Lloyd Geering
Publisher: Bridget Williams Books
ISBN: 187724256X
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 135
Book Description
Does the failure of the conventional idea of God spell the end of the Christian tradition? Or does it simply mean the end of conventional Christian doctrine? Christianity without God affirms the latter, treating Christian culture as a living and evolving stream. In this cogently argued book, Lloyd Geering brings the resources of his deep scholarship to look at what the world really needs from contemporary religion. His inspiration is the cultivation of the wisdom of Christianity, not a dependence on beliefs about a supernatural saviour.
