Introducing my Book: God’s Grand Game

The new atheism movement has highlighted many of the theological problems related to Christianity and other religions, and as we move into a ‘post-truth’ age, many people are wondering whether there is still a place for God in society. Has science consigned God to the evolutionary scrapheap?

In my book God’s Grand Game: Divine Sovereignty and the Cosmic Playground, I strongly argue that God exists, but also criticise many of the key doctrines of Christianity and other world religions that present, in my view, a mistaken understanding of the nature of God.

Tackling subjects such as free will, suffering, morality, and the afterlife, God’s Grand Game presents a grand vision of reality with God at the centre. The book looks not only backward at the religions that have shaped our world, but also to the future — a future in which I believe science, technology, and a new kind of religion, will all have a meaningful role to play.
