Denys Turner is one of the most accomplished thinkers in contemporary theology. His distinctive contribution to topics as diverse as theology and politics and mysticism and theology is characterized by an incisive iconoclasm and a fervent desire to get at the truth of things. Time and again the author offers striking and original observations, which put new perspectives on familiar subjects. While Faith Seeking originated as talks given to a wide variety of audiences, it uniformly attempts to reconcile the apparently conflicting -- but as the author sees it, complementary -- outlooks of head and heart. Its fundamental theme is that the mind cm love just as the heart needs to understand and that a proper use of intellect is a way of being truly alive.

Faith Seeking Conviviality traces the journey of a U.S. missionary into Brazil (and beyond), seeking to be faithfully present while also questioning the default settings of “good intentions.” Taking Ivan Illich as the primary theological guide on that journey, Faith Seeking Conviviality narrates the discovery of a renewed imagination for Christian mission that arises as a response to two persistent questions. First, given the colonial history of Christian missionary expansion, on what basis do we go on fulfilling the “Great Commission” (Matt 28:16–20) as Christ’s disciples? A second question, intimately related to the first, is: What makes it possible to embody a distinctively Christian presence that is missionary without being manipulative? In doing theology with and after Ivan Illich, Faith Seeking Conviviality does not offer a pull-off-the-shelf model for mission, but rather a framework for embodying the incarnational logic of mission that entails a “convivial turn”—delinking missionary discipleship from the lure of techniques and institutional dependence in order to receive and to share the peace of Christ relationally.

The authoraEUR(tm)s personal narrative addresses a truth which many people would rather ignore: the crisis of our time is a hunger for purpose and meaning. Self-help methods, worldly desires, and materialistic goals did little to satisfy his soul. Something important was missing. After years of spiritual wandering the frustration and futility of it all finally put Michael on a new course. Only after admitting he needed a drastic change in life would deeper insight be revealed. And so began a steadfast search for greater spiritual blessings. Through comparisons of various religious claims and exploration of many other subjects and disciplines, an open-minded zeal for understanding was balanced with hope and prayer. Answers to lifeaEUR(tm)s most serious and enduring questions can be elusive. And the process of transformation rarely affords shortcuts or conveniences. Yet MichaelaEUR(tm)s life had seldom been easy. Raised in a hostile environment of alcoholism and domestic violence his teenage years were marked by rebellion, excess, and frequent fighting. As a young adult, he tried to find his way by singing in a rock band and training in martial arts. The next twenty years would be a path filled with twists and turns and tragedy as required for shaping the sincerity of his heart. But a battle of conflicting forces never endsaEUR"until one side surrenders. Happy to Be Content pulls no punches. It is sometimes blunt and always honest. The pages vividly portray one manaEUR(tm)s very real, human struggle in mistakenly thinking peace could be found in prosperity. Although the tribulations helped reveal the errors of his old ways; there were new questions. Should he return to the church of his youth? Or could something like Zen-meditation, psychology, New Age Spirituality, or Buddhism help show the way? What emerged was a well-reasoned and inspirational guidebook. This exposition of love, hope, and meaning is sprinkled with shades of humor while maintaining philosophical clarity and a firm foundation in theology. Flowing with rhythm and style, the pages travel along the road where human need and desire encounter divine truth and GodaEUR(tm)s grace. All those sincerely seeking purpose, passion, and peace may likely behold an eternal treasure.

Far too often, the God of the philosophers, those who for the most part had no appointment at a university, are the primary sources relied upon by many authors nowadays in their approach to the problem of evil. These fifty-two Lord’s day or Sabbath day readings draw the reader into a dialogue with university professors of the late medieval era and sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries. The theme of these literary renditions of yesteryear’s debates and disputations is the perennial quest by theologians to exonerate God from the charge that he is the author of evil. The sophistication and complexity of their scholastic method and solutions to the problem of evil may surprise, but hopefully will persuade, modern day readers to rethink their own conclusion about the problem, and to take up and read university theologians who were formerly unknown, all in the spirit of Anselm’s faith seeking understanding.
