    Life confronts us with an endless stream of questions. Some are trivial. But some draw us into the deepest dimensions of human inquiry, a place where our decisions have profound implications for life and faith. Is there a God, and if so, how can I know anything about who or what God is? Is the quest for truth an elusive dream? How should I live and what should I value? What happens ...

    Divine and Human Rule in a World of Need

    by Dewi Hughes
    Foreword by Christopher J. H. Wright
