Description: "Where do we come from? Why are we here? Where are we going? How can we get there? These are the basic religious questions that we all ask amid the possibilities and limitations of life, its successes and failures, its blessings and tragedies. Christian faith has a particular vision of God, of the world, and of humanity, a vision that issues from the person and ministry of Jesus Christ. In him, the "image of the unseen God" (Col. 1:15), we also see what it really means for us to be the "image of God" (Gen. 1:27). He is the reason why Christians are convinced that our lives do make sense, that we and our world are created in love and for love, and that all men and women are destined to find final healing and fulfillment together by sharing in God's own divine life." -- Publisher's description.
