Gerald O'Collins1 editions

In his latest book, Gerald O'Collins adopts the person and saving work of Christ as the master key for organizing themes commonly treated by theologies of religion. But he does so through the lens of Christology to examine important themes that these theologies typically ignore: the relevance of the theology of the cross for thinking about "the others"; the impact of Christ's priesthood on all men and women of all places and times; the efficacy of prayer for "the others" inspired by love; and the nature of faith available for these "others." This "Christology of religions," O'Collins argues, can help break the current stalemate widely affecting the theology of religions, and breathe new life into thinking about religious "others."
