Experiences of God by Jurgen Moltmann

Hope and fear are two of the most basic human experiences. It is also possible to see them as more than human experiences, in fact as pointers towards God, and that is the approach adopted by Jurgen Moltmann in his new book. As a further step, he goes on to consider the theology of mystical experience over the long history of the Christian church. These studies are prefaced by perhaps the most interesting account of all: 'Why I am a Christian.' Here one of the best-known theologians of our age describes his life and the development of his theological thinking, and offers a personal confession of faith.
