Understanding the Mystery of God

Christians are often tempted to encapsulate God in their own little boxes, as if God could be tied down to our finite way of thinking. But we can neither domesticate nor fully understand God, for theology has a lot to do with coming to terms with the mystery of God.

About Dancing in the Dark

This revised edition of Dancing in the Dark—shaped, as in the first edition, by the two overarching themes of God as Trinity and a theology of participation—embraces the notion of mystery in presenting a compelling vision of seeing all things finally united within the inner life of God.

Engaging in Christian Ministry

As we engage in Christian ministry, we are summoned to participate as grace-filled faith communities in the triune God's immeasurably loving and healing work in the world, leading those who are in darkness into an awareness of the God who imparts life in all its glorious abundance, that which is so . . . and a journey into the mystery of that which is to come.

The Gospel's Call

The liberating ministry of the gospel is both a declaration and an invitation—an invitation to the dance!
