'In these pages Paul Sponheim presents a profound 'summary of basic Christian convictions concerning God.' If you are a college or seminary student or professor, a pastor, a reflective lay Christian, a curious or even skeptical non-Christian who wonders about what to think and say about God, I hope you will read this book. If you are looking for a resource to use in a congregational study group, a college or seminary class or pastors' or professors' book club, I hope you will select this book. With humble but firm conviction Sponheim enables all of us to think more clearly and speak more wisely concerning the mysterious, life-giving reality we call God.'
-Lowell O. Erdahl, bishop emeritus, St. Paul Area Synod ELCA
