A Faith for the Future, by The Rev. Jesse Zink, introduces Episcopal theology

with the question, “In today’s world of social media saturation where there is

constant pressure to communicate in ever shorter sentences and thoughts, can we

capture the good news of Jesus Christ in a post on X?” The author thinks so:

“You are loved with a love unlike any else, that leads to a life unlike any

else – now go, show that love and life to others.” A huge ocean of meaning lies

under each word and this book welcomes readers into those depths.  Each

chapter takes a different aspect of Christian faith – God, Jesus, Holy Spirit,

Creation and Humanity, Baptism, Church, Eucharist, Mission, and Hope of the

World to Come – and links history and tradition with real world experience.
