Customer Reviews

Beautiful clarity. - Rated 5/5
I thought this would be a very dry book, but it is a passionate explanation of Christianity. I've read it several times and often found more in it.


Read all about i! - Rated 5/5
This is, IMHO, an important book. It is an exciting account of the Archbishop's understanding of the Christian Faith. It is clearly written, practical, non-patronising and away from the usual superficial fundamentalist insecurities that thrust a manipulative message that says, 'accept this and all will be well'. Abp. Rowan lets us grow up and reason with ourselves and God. A must for all those seeking a God who may be trusted!!!


A well-written look at the essentials of Christian belief from a more mystical angle - Rated 4/5
This book is based on Rowan Williams' talks in Canterbury Cathedral during Holy Week 2005 and is an introduction to Christianity focusing on six major themes - trusting in God, creation, Jesus, suffering, the church and life after death. These themes are considered with reference to the Apostles' Creed and the Nicene Creed alongside reflections on historical characters such as St Augustine, Thomas Aquinas, Martin Luther and modern people and events.

The book doesn't presuppose significant knowledge about Christianity but the writing style is rather wordy and feels a little more academic than usual in books aimed for this market. It isn't the usual checklist of basic Christian beliefs but is instead a well-written and interesting approach in discussing the trustworthy and unchanging love of God and how we begin to live in the light of this knowledge.

Meaning to Mystery - Rated 4/5
'Tokens of Trust' explores the meaning of the Christian creed in a clear, crisp and concise manner. Whereas many writers seek to demystify the Gospel through analytic deconstruction, Rowan Williams develops the gospel's sense of mystery and encourages a relationship of trust between the reader and his/her maker, the communion of humanity and the world created according God's order. This work is fundamentally spiritual and uplifting.
