Faith For the Future: Church's Teachings For a Changing World by Jesse Zink

JESSE ZINK With the launch of the Church's Teachings for a Changing World series, visionary Episcopal thinkers and leaders have teamed up to write a new set of books, grounded and thoughtful enough for seminarians and leaders, concise and accessible enough for newcomers, with a host of discussion resources that help readers to dig deep. This third volume introduces Episcopal theology with the question "Can you capture the good news of Jesus Christ in a tweet?" Author Jesse Zink thinks so: "You are loved with a love unlike anything else--now, go show that love to others. Huge oceans of meaning lie under each word, and his new book welcomes readers into those depths. Each chapter takes a different aspect of Christian faith--God, Jesus, the Holy Spirit, Creation and Humanity, Baptism, Church, Eucharist, Mission, and the Hope of the World to Come--and links history and tradition with real world experience.
