Who Do You Say I Am?: The Christ Story in the Cosmic Context

Publisher Description

The religious landscape is changing rapidly and many of those still affiliated with the Christian communities are increasingly uneasy about the Traditional Christian Story whose original impulse was God's act of restoration through the life, death and resurrection of Jesus following the primal sin. In Who do you say I am?, Kevin Treston offers a complementary understanding of the tradition, exploring the features of a Cosmic Christian Story that situates God's revelation in Jesus as the Christ firmly within the evolving dynamics of creation. It seeks a response to how Christians may understand and celebrate the Incarnation within the wondrous evolution of all things in our cosmic context. It is a Story that takes account of modern science, especially cosmology, quantum physics, energy field theories, genetics, globalisation, technology, and neuroscience that are changing forever how humans live as citizens of the planet. This book is for general readers who aspire to extend their understanding of the Christian story and live their faith in the modern world.
