Description: What is the point of being Christian? If one thinks of religion as just ‘useful’ then one has reduced it to another consumer product. But if we are pointed to God, then this should make a difference to how we live. Timothy Radcliffe argues for Christian belief, Christian Gospels, as well as interprets Christian Gospel in the light of a deep understanding of human nature as well as the problems and anxieties of modern men and women. The frame of reference for this book is wide and it is based amongst other things on Radcliffe’s pastoral experience of dealing with people with problematic marriages, those struggling with celibacy, those trying to understand the nature of religious authority, and those trying to remain loyal to the Church which finds their sexual orientation ‘irregular’. Radcliffe’s argument is that the more one understands the Gospel, the more one is open to the outside world.
