About this title: These 16 sermons contain in concentrated form some of Tillich's most lambent themes. Although they were first published in the early 1960s, the pieces in question take up preoccupations which continue to haunt us at the beginning of the 21st century. Tillich discusses, among other topics, wisdom; salvation; loneliness and solitude; creation in relation to the creator; inequality; and spiritual presence. He has a desire to make sense of the fundamental mystery of Christian theology: the paradox of the moment which is now wherein comes the mystery which is eternity.

"Startling, terrifying, amazing. Tillich is to Christian theology what a small, ancient Chinese master is to judo. He takes one sentence of Scripture and flexes it, twists it, exerts pressure on its most critical angle, and slams you down on the mat with it, your head spinning and all the stars and blinding rush of pain and wind as the real evidence you've met the master. You can get up of course, dust yourself off and go at him again, but nothing will be the same. Heroic, epic, inspiring. A true master and the intellectual giant of 20th century Christian theology."
