{"product_id":"christian-faith-in-our-time-paul-jersild-9781498295864","title":"Christian Faith in Our Time: Rethinking the Church's Theology","description":"Jersild responds to a fundamental issue in the theology of the church: what is the nature of our language in addressing the mysteries of our faith, such as speaking of God, or of the incarnation? Advocating a \"modest\" theology in facing the mystery of God, and acknowledging the impact of postmodern sensibilities, he lifts up the metaphorical language of Jesus as the key to a responsible theology. Jersild makes his case for a \"faith-based imagination\" centering on the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus as God's man who brings a divine, redemptive love to the human story. Theology does not give us a line in the sand that divides the saved from the lost, nor is it the truth that makes all other religions false. This is a book for seekers as well as many church members who harbor questions and doubts about the church's theology.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Paul Jersild\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 149829586X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781498295864\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cascade Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/19\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 152\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.55lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 5.90w x 0.50d","brand":"Paul Jersild","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48436777419007,"sku":"9781498295864","price":23.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a77ce445-a843-4b85-b9df-bec457127670.jpg?v=1777157718","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/christian-faith-in-our-time-paul-jersild-9781498295864","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
