Theology in the Wilderness is the concluding volume of A Post-Christendom Faith. It is a theological anthropology, an account that portrays the nobility of the human person loved by God. This third volume is an invitation--to explore the elevated possibilities of relationship with God. It begins by drawing analogies between the trinitarian Persons and human persons made in their image. It then focuses on aspects of the human person: animal legacy and sin; a fuller focus on human identity determined by being made in the image and likeness of God; and a historical and Christian understanding of the soul. With these features of the human person in place, the book turns to the response to grace--the development of the cardinal and theological virtues. In the final section, the pursuit of truth and its expression are explored as unique virtues of believers, especially in the difficult task of responsible reference to God. Despite the difficulty, understanding how words refer to God is incumbent on ministers, priests, teachers, and leaders who are likely to be asked for "an accounting for the hope that is in you" (1 Pet 3:15). The section concludes with an understanding of Logos--the reason that there is reason, and the reason that there is science--gifts of the Logos who loves us.
