The early twenty-first century doesn't feel like a promising time
for an optimistic book when we are faced with the challenges of
climate change, the rise of fascism and the emptiness at the heart
of our consumer society. But now looking back at his life and
inspired by the struggle of so many women and men for a better
world, Peter cannot believe that it has all been for nothing. There
may be no way of knowing for certain that the world has some
ultimate meaning and purpose, but finding reasons to believe
changes everything. Peter identifies as a Christian agnostic. "I
don't know there is God but I believe in God." In Not for Nothing
Peter reveals an exultation in the meaningfulness of life, a
trusting belief in the mystery behind the world to which we can
give the different names of God, a celebration of the wonder of
life in art and music, a trust that everything we love is not lost
in death, a commitment to moral and political action, a sense of
community in church worship stripped of stifling dogma, and the
mysterious vocation for each of us to become sons and daughters of
God. If that's what it means to be a Christian agnostic, it's
certainly not for nothing. It means everything.
