Those interested in theology who want to get away from the technical side and read a book for enjoyment that will at the same time stimulate their thinking should start with this book. Professor Macquarrie, always a challenging author, gives the reader helpful ideas that clearly indicate God's "down-to- earthness" "his involvement in the life of his creatures" here and now.

This material will bring freshness of purpose to all who are grasped by these ideas
