Scientific knowledge has stripped Christianity of the mythical matrix in which the
creeds were conceived. The historical study of the Bible and the quest of the historical Jesus have raised the future of the faith to crisis level.
At its Once & Future Faith conference in March 2001, four world class thinkers — Don Cupitt, Karen Armstrong, John Shelby Spong, and Lloyd Geering — joined
Robert Funk and the Fellows of the Jesus Seminar to sort through the issues and attempt to form an agenda for the reinvention of Christianity. Their suggestions — on
questions such as life after death, the meaning of God, apocalypticism, and the significance of Jesus' death — fill the pages of this book. Descriptions of the contributions to this volume. Retail Price: $20.00 — Become a Westar Institute Member and receive a 20% discount off the retail price.
