Western culture has eclipsed the fundamental conviction that developed its worldview gave birth to its institutions and provided continual rejuvenation to its way of life namely that the living God AllPowerful and AllKnowing is actively searching for us In this radical quest God became a man lived a human life died a torturous death triumphantly rose from the dead and ascended into eternal glory This central Christian belief is the heart of Western culture It broke the pathetic pantheistic and deterministic pagan worldview of angry vengeful gods in a dark world of personal despair and meaninglessness It was precisely the Dawn from on High breaking upon the human family and shedding abundant eternal light that allowed for a hope to be born a dignity recognized and a human creativity to flourish It made all the difference And it gave an impetus to the creation and development of Western culture As this profound belief has waned so have its blessings As we see a formerly abandoned worldview with all its demons being ushered back into Western culture we have to make some decisions Will the diminishing of the light be recognized Will darkness be rejected There are many options to preserve the West And yet if Western people pursue all other options but forget the most foundational then the result would only be a house built on sand This simple book is a reminder of forgotten realities a resource to reinvigorate a tired culture and a reassertion of the radical truth that God is searching for us Yes this book is a small effort to point to a supreme truth namely that the living God the Creator and Sustainer of all things will move any mountain or fill any valley to find us heal and restore us embrace us and show us our dignity as his children

Writing with his usual grace and fluency Jonathan Sacks moves beyond the tired arguments of militant atheists such as Dawkins and Hitchens to explore how religion has always played a valuable part in human culture and far from being dismissed as redundant must be allowed to temper and develop scientific understanding in order for us to be fully human Ranging around the world to draw comparisons from different cultures and delving deep into the history of language and of western civilisation Jonathan Sacks shows how the predominance of scienceoriented thinking is embedded deeply even in our religious understanding and calls on us to recognise the centrality of relationship to true religion and thus to see how this core value of relationship is essential if we are to avoid the natural tendency for science to rule our lives rather than fulfilling its promise to set us free
