Waking Up to God: Rediscovering Faith in Post-Pandemic Times

These are some of the most fundamental questions asked by Christians and many others, and they need asking anew in each generation. Neil Richardson’s latest book offers a “new look” Christian faith, drawing from the Bible and from Christian tradition, but showing how much we have missed in the Bible, and how much some traditional beliefs have been misunderstood.

The person of Jesus is key to all three questions explored here. As the “ultimate human being” and, paradoxically, the image of a God, Jesus is an iconic figure for our common human future.

Neil Richardson also explores some of the practical outcomes this has for the life of the Church and the way Christians live in the world. Social justice and a greater sharing of the earth also follow, and the neglected Christian themes of enjoying both God and the world, and life before and after death.
