Christian vision for the world
Hope is essential to human beings because it gives meaning and purpose to their lives. Hope energizes individuals and communities; it also produces indulgence and patience.
In this clear and accessible study, Roland Chia shows how Christian hope transcends both secular and religious worldviews; hope “does not encourage us to flee the present for the future, but (...) allows us to face the present”.
And what can we hope for in the future? The return of Jesus, heaven, the resurrection of believers, announced in the Bible and ultimate hopes for believers sometimes appear as very distant realities; the author strives here to make them tangible for us.
The collection MULTICULTURAL VOICES offers works on the Christian faith and its concrete applications, written by authors from all regions of the world and members of the Lausanne Convention.
