God Unknown

by Ian Mobsby

The doctrine of the Trinity has the power to resonate with us deeply. Its focus on unity and community speaks with great prophetic challenge to both the world and the church.

In God Unknown, Ian Mobsby shows how the Trinity’s divine unity, open-endedness and refusal to be bound by fixed meanings can illuminate our mission, worship and spirituality today. Weaving together Trinitarian theology, cultural exegesis and new monastic spirituality, he issues a timely call to the church to become a more authentic, effective expression of God’s love in an individualist, consumerist culture.

[Mauberley]

An interesting and thoroughgoing post-modern theology that will seem like a breath of fresh air to many readers and which will be a scandal to others. Those whose Christian faith is dialectical in nature and for whom dogma such as 'sin' and 'redemption' are central concerns will likely fall into the latter camp. (I may be wrong but I don't believe that Mobsby mentions the Resurrection anywhere in the book.) However, for those who wonder what a post-modern spirituality might look like, this is a good place to start.
