Tomorrow's Faith

This book could serve well as a text for a discussion of various aspects of faith. In the introduction Fr Smith urges the reader to remember that love is more important than knowledge, and that we are here to grow in love. What follows is a series of short chapters on the Bible and Revelation, God, Jesus Christ, human beings and the Church. At the head of each chapter Smith places a traditional understanding alongside a contemporary understanding, which is then elaborated in the text. Sometimes, as in the Resurrection for instance, the contemporary understanding makes the whole episode symbolic and metaphorical, which may miss an important psychic dimension.
