Publisher Description: An honest, unflinching tale of re-finding one's faith, from one of the world's most famous theologians. Honest and unflinching, Without Buddha I Could not be a Christian narrates how estreemed theologian, Paul F. Knitter overcame a crisis of faith by looking to Buddhism for inspiration. From prayer to how Christianity views life after death, Knitter argues that a Buddhist standpoint can encourage a more person-centred conception of Christianity, where individual religious experience comes first, and liturgy and tradition second. Moving and revolutionary, this book will inspire Christians everywhere. |
