‘God: A Guide for the Perplexed’ by Keith Ward (book review)

I am always on the lookout for books that are gripping, stimulating, and moving (aren’t we all!). It is not enough for me when a book is clever. And Keith Ward’s book ‘God: A Guide for the Perplexed’ is certainly clever, but unfortunately not affecting in the ways that I am looking for. As the… Continue reading

Living with the Question

Anyone who has read my blog in any depth will recognise that there are two important components to my beliefs about God and the world. On the one hand, there is my panentheist attitude that sees God in everything as the ‘cosmic animator’ – responsible for everything that happens in existence. On the other hand,… Continue reading

Everlasting Life

I have been meditating on the scripture John 3:16 which says “God so loved the World, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” Those two magical words, ‘everlasting life’, what does that phrase mean to you? I believe death is a fear that… Continue reading
