The new Trinitarian thinking takes a great step forward in this book. It may well be the future of Christian theology. In this book the author proposes a three-way conversation between theology, science and pastoral ministry. His approach draws on a Trinitarian understanding of God as a relational being of love, whose life ""spills over"" into all created reality, human and non-human. By locating human meaning and purpose within God's ""creation-community"" this book offers the possibility of a transforming engagement between those in pastoral ministry and the scientific community. Trinitarian relationships are to be modelled in the pastoral life the church, we are to image the intimate inter-relationships...the perichoresis of the Triune God.
