Synopsis

Christian doctrine, spirituality, and practical matters of ethics, morality, and lifestyle - they all raise many questions for Christians and non-Christians alike. Often God's questions seem to take over from our questions, replacing them with a yearning for truth and understanding. Brother Ramon looks at these questions in a prayful and honest attempt to answer a whole range of questions. The responses are compassionate, insightful, and reasoned, often shedding new light and urging us to look beyond the surface of problems. This book is the result of Brother Ramon's sending out questionnaires over a period of eighteen months. The questions have come from (in alphabetical order) Anglicans, Baptists, Brethren, Catholics, Methodists, Orthodox, Pentecostals, Presbyterians, Quakers, Salvations Army, church members and non-Christians. The questions that he received were profound and basic, yet simple and to the point. They are divided into four Questions of Belief, Questions of Spirituality, Questions of Practice, and Questions from Nonbelievers. The answers may not be the expected ones, but become the basis for further thought and prayer. Ramon encourages us to look deeper than the questions we ask, to the issues at the heart of our concern; to allow the questions we have been avoiding to be exposed by the love of God.
