Bruce Chilton -- Bard College "Christian theology proceeds from the central conviction that the kingdom of God is known in and through Jesus. In this accessible, clear consideration, Paul Rowntree Clifford suggests how that conviction may be sustained both in reading the Gospels and in engaging the world around us. He shows out of a wealth of experience that the inherent paradox of the kingdom, once understood, becomes a resource of paradox of the kingdom, once understood, becomes a resource of strength in our human relationships and of hope in our approach to God." Gerald H. Anderson -- Overseas Ministries Study Center "This may prove to be the most important and interesting book of the decade on helping us to understand how the kingdom of God relates to our secular world."
