PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
Alan M. Suggate is a classicist, theologian and Anglican. From long experience, he draws together his reflections on our culture and the Christian faith. He taught Classics in state schools, Religious Studies in the College of St Hild and St Bede, Durham, and Theology in the University of Durham.
The saying that wisdom is the fruit of experience is abundantly vindicated in Alan Suggate’s passionate yet reasoned defence of an Anglican-inspired Christian humanism. Liturgically rooted and politically engaged, this book represents the fine distillation of a lifetime of reflection and points us with real insight to the kind of public theology urgently needed in modern Britain. -- Robert Song, Professor of Theological Ethics, Durham University This splendid book is the mature fruit of years of teaching, social engagement and Christian practice. It is humanely Anglican, an apologia for the compelling vision of Christian humanism, and a vivid example of the contribution of Anglican social thought to the current cultural situation. Alan Suggate gives the basis of a narrative of Christian living that is in the world, and with the world, but rightly critical of some stories that govern the world. His narrative is presented with honest realism, unafraid of theological depth and yet resolutely eschewing the culture wars which bedevil present debate. It is pleasingly readable with short sections that do not labour the point. -- Matthew Bullimore * University of Cambridge *
