Remarks: Square cut out of the inside title page, Overall in very good condition. Description: A healthy and living theology must grow out of actual experience' writes Rosemary Haughton. So too our experience cannot make ultimate sense without God because 'experience drives us continually to new ways to express what God is doing to us'. This is the knife edge of experience. Rosemary Haughton is the advocate of a theology which begins where we are, every one of us. In this way alone will we prevent theology becoming the prerogative of the theologians who 'busy themselves with separating yet more strands of speculation from the yarn spun by the previous generation'. The six chapters of this book discuss perspectives and facets of our human experience, and conclude that theology must be the result of the whole Church reflecting on its experience... it is the poetry of a holy people. Rosemary Haughton has established for herself a firm reputation as one of the most creative and original Christian thinkers of our time.
