Review by Library Journal Review

Episcopal priest and author Capon (The Foolishness of Preaching and other works) here offers a highly engaging yet learned approach to the understanding of God. Not many could try to address the significance of God as the hidden hand of history by mixing the insights of baseball with reflections on Irenaeus and Anselm, but Capon does so with gusto. His original work culminates in an imagined conversation with Melanchthon, Luther, and Julian of Norwich, concluding with one of Julian!s visions. Highly recommended. (c) Copyright 2010.
