The Comeback God: A Theological Primer for a Life of Faith
In the current postmodern context, where many despair of faith and seem to circle back to the 1960's conclusion that "God is dead," this book will hold forth a reason to believe and a pathway to probe more deeply in contemporary images and language the age-old truth and traditions of faith.
