Straight to the Pointlessness: A Christian Account of Life and the Universe
Despite the barbs of Dawkins et al, many people today are still open to faith, but Christianity too often seems both limiting of personal freedom and fraught with intellectual and moral difficulties. If living for God's glory gives purpose to life, are human beings merely pawns of God?. Mark Hart shows that in fact freedom lies at the heart of the Christian faith. W e are not puppets, justified by being a means to an end, but players, called to enjoy God's own gratuitous life, based on mutual self-giving; and this cannot be imposed: w e can only find God, and find life, by finding each other.
