Zusatztext The author is to be thanked and congratulated for addressing two of the most fundamental problems that face Christianity today: first! that our talk about God (theology) has cut adrift from our experience of God (spirituality) and secondly! that spirituality itself has become so abstract that it fails to focus on the ordinary! everyday material conditions of our existence! which is the only place we can meet God. Christ Plays in Ten Thousand Places is a book for all places! for all times! for all peoples and for all situations! however tragic and hopefless they may seem to be.
