Arthur C. Clarke's classic in which he ponders humanity's future
and possible evolution When the silent spacecraft arrived and took
the light from the world, no one knew what to expect. But, although
the Overlords kept themselves hidden from man, they had come to
unite a warring world and to offer an end to poverty and crime.
When they finally showed themselves it was a shock, but one that
humankind could now cope with, and an era of peace, prosperity and
endless leisure began. But the children of this utopia dream
strange dreams of distant suns and alien planets, and begin to
evolve into something incomprehensible to their parents, and soon
they will be ready to join the Overmind ... and, in a grand and
thrilling metaphysical climax, leave the Earth behind.
Southwestern Journal of Theology 2021 Book of the Year Award
(Honorable Mention, Applied Theology/Ethics) This book shows that
theology is both integrally related to formation in Jesus Christ
and shapes our understanding of the world. Christian formation is
incomplete and impossible without theological formation, because
Christ transforms our hearts and minds, attuning them to the
reality of God. As the authors explore the deep connections between
theology and the life of the Christian, they emphasize Christian
formation as a defining feature of the church, arguing that
theology must be integrally connected to the church's traditions
and practices.
