Here is more creative writing, originally lectures or essays, from one of the world’s prominent living theologians. Jürgen Moltmann says that after sixty years studying theology, he still finds it “a fascinating, disturbing and wonderful discipline and an adventure of ideas” - and it shows! His stated aim in this book is “to bring out what is specific, strange and special about the Christian faith”. Among many particularly stimulating sections are the ones on: The Resurrection of Christ (which lies at the centre of what Moltmann writes); such explicitly eschatological issues as the resurrection of the body and the Final Judgment; the Shekinah (by which he means the mystery of God’s presence in Judaism and Christianity. These ideas were new to me, and most interesting); Monotheism and the Trinity, with special emphasis on the meaning of the term perichoresis; ‘the measure of the gods’ (an illuminating sermon on Psalm 98); a Meditation on the Seeing of God; and a final section headed ‘God in Nature’, where creation and evolution are both discussed. This is an exciting volume to read and reflect on.
