The challenge for me, however, is to hold in tension both the dimension which Jim emphases: namely 'what's there', and the types of faith claims Christianity makes which, as I Christian I can't ignore.

It would probably be easiest if you send me an email (dbeldman@sympatico.ca) and I will respond to your questions (I have many questions of my own). I should mention that I will be away for while so I might not be able to respond immediately. I look forward to further contact though!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
