{"product_id":"9781498295871","title":"Christian Faith in Our Time: Rethinking the Churchh","description":"Jersild responds to a fundamental issue in the theology of the church: what is the nature of our language in addressing the mysteries of our faith, such as speaking of God, or of the incarnation? Advocating a \"modest\" theology in facing the mystery of God, and acknowledging the impact of postmodern sensibilities, he lifts up the metaphorical language of Jesus as the key to a responsible theology. Jersild makes his case for a \"faith-based imagination\" centering on the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus as God's man who brings a divine, redemptive love to the human story. Theology does not give us a line in the sand that divides the saved from the lost, nor is it the truth that makes all other religions false. This is a book for seekers as well as many church members who harbor questions and doubts about the church's theology.","brand":"Wipf \u0026 Stock Publishers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47166329487600,"sku":"9781498295871","price":10.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781498295871_p0.jpg?v=1763708568","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781498295871","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
