Faith Without Certainty: Liberal Theology In The 21st Century

Faith Without Certainty: Liberal Theology In The 21st Century

Editorial Reviews
Book Description
This innovative critical analysis of religious liberalism probes the dynamic tensions of a theology that is committed to individual freedom and autonomy on the one hand and a greater sense of community on the other. Much more than a primer, Faith Without Certainty lays out the basic characteristics of liberal theology, delving into historical and philosophical sources as well as social and intellectual roots. Clear-eyed but ultimately hopeful, Rasor explores the ambiguous and creative nature of liberal theology today. Ideal for readers who want a better understanding of liberal theology, a religious tradition that is rooted not in authority but in one's own experience and conscience.

About the Author
Paul Rasor is an ordained Unitarian Universalist minister who received his Master of Divinity degree from Harvard Divinity School and holds a Ph.D. in theology from Harvard University. He currently teaches biblical and religious studies at Pendle Hill, the Quaker study center near Philadelphia.
