A New Framework for Christian Belief by Adrian B Smith
In common with all human beings as spiritual creatures, Christians carry a set of beliefs about the reality which they name "God" which underlies existence and which is a guide through life. For some, the seeds of this were planted in early childhood - by parents, Sunday School, Catechism class or early experiences of the sacred church - and were thought about, questioned and became more personal as these people matured. For others, the set of beliefs came later in life as they sought to understand what being a Christian meant. Universally held Christian dogmas, for many today, do not ring true with their own experience. Scientific knowledge, Biblical studies and human consciousness have all evolved. Hence, there is a gap between the formulation of ancient creeds and the way Christians understand religious truths today. This book presents a contemporary alternative to traditional expressions of belief and is offered as an invitation to readers to think through each statement and formulate for themselves one that more neatly resonates with their own understandings and experiences. It is designed to help readers on their spiritual journey by leading them to a new awareness of a richness in Christian beliefs perhaps not previously perceived.| SKU | Unavailable |
