Overview"This volume asks: is God localized somewhere above, looking down on humanity; did God lock humanity out of heaven; did Jesus ""come down"" from Heaven to save humanity; are human beings the cause of death and disaster on this planet? These and similar questions challenge an outdated world view that has influenced people's images and ideas of God to the present day. The book tries to bridge the gap between Church doctrine and the essential Gospel message that is the Christian legacy. It notes that many of the images, ideas and language brought to faith questions today belong to a world view that is no longer relevant or is highly questionable. There is an outline of contemporary cosmology that connects the message of Jesus and the spirituality of Pentecost to the world lived in today. Catholics and other Christians across a wide spectrum of ages and beliefs should be interested in the message in this book. The suggested questions for discussion makes it useful as an adult faith development resource."
