The dynamics of the Christian faith

Do we still know how to explain notions such as divine will, the sacraments, the Fall, salvation or the Trinity? Has the postmodern Church forgotten its confessions of faith? And finally, what does it matter? Theologian A. James Reimer believes that these notions are important and that if the Church ignores them, it does so at its own peril. Through a series of brief essays, Reimer presents essential Christian dogmas with humor, relevance, and imagination. Fundamental notions such as heaven, hell, prayer and judgment are explained in the light of History and put in relation to contemporary life. There are Anabaptist-Mennonite accents, but the author also takes into account the historical context and the traditions of the entire Church. Reimer refuses to view dogma as boring and does not shy away from controversy. Each dogma becomes a pretext for an exciting encounter with the mysteries of faith. A searing book that refreshingly explores the essential questions of the Christian faith; a sort of little catechism that invites us to rethink what we believe.
