This collection of essays by Robert Funk delves into the contributions of notable artists and intellectuals, including Kafka, Beckett, Henry Miller, Castaneda, Fowles, and Thoreau, to illuminate the true successors of Jesus. In the section titled 'Voices of Silence,' Funk examines the interplay between language and contemporary reality. He ultimately addresses the pivotal theological question of whether individuals can identify a genuine world to which they can fully commit, offering twenty-one propositions on theology in response.

A course of study based on the writings of Lloyd Geering, New Zealand's award-winning theologian and teacher. It is designed for groups and individuals who are troubled by the gap between Christian teachings and the realities of life in the universe we now recognize. Robert Jones guides readers through three of Geering's pivotal books — The World to Come, Tomorrow's God, and Christian Faith at the Crossroads, and explores the relationship of Christianity to the cosmos, culture, and human life.
