Editorial Reviews

From Library Journal
Orthodox in spirit but stressing the inner journey of faith rather than doctrinal formulas, these thoughtful and nuanced reflections by the dean of San Francisco's Grace Cathedral explore the spiritual meaning of Lent, the Crucifixion, and Easter. Jones probes a faith born in "the collision of two passions--our passion for God and God's passion for us." His insights critique both fundamentalism and secular relativism, inviting all who need "loving out of their disappointment, cynicism, and despair" into a new resurrection hope. Deeply felt and intelligent, highly literate without the least pretension, this makes rewarding reading.-- EC
