Barry Callen offers a way to think again about the meaning of theology for the contemporary world. He calls for a carefully considered faith that entails an enriched reason that is beyond reason. He pleads for contemporary Christians to develop a perspective on how to think and believe again in the highly secularized West. He argues that it is time in the postmodern world for Christianity to show that it reflects a rational foundation in real history and an emotional intelligence that is transrational (not irrational). He argues that it is important to spell out the implications of postmodernism for the Christian gospel so that the new generations can understand. Callen reminds us that the gospel of Jesus Christ has managed to speak to the longings of people in every previous generation, and the demand for thinking and speaking clearly in the postmodern world is a pressing task for Christianity today.
