- Notes
- "[By] Trevor Huddleston, C.R., Bishop of Masasi".
- "First published in Fontana Books, 1966. Second Impression, August 1966". -- verso of t.-p.
- "This small book is in fact a series of addresses delivered at the University College of Makerere, Uganda in 1964". -- Preface, p. [7].
- "'What does it mean ?' is the question that acts as a spur in every field of human activity, the question that drives the race forward. What is the meaning of sin and evil, freedom and obedience, death and life, the world itself and man's place in it ? The author ... talks with compassion about the meaning of these perennial problems in terms of the Christian faith. He uses the familiar symbols of the Christian story -- the stable, the wilderness, the market-place, the roadside, water, the hill and the garden -- to show the relevance of the gospel material to present-day Africa, indeed, to us all. He does not gloss over the failures of the Church today and in the past, but, in the vivid simplicity of his presentation, reveals a depth of understanding that will open roadways to the future". -- back cover.
- Contents: God and Our World -- Why the Church ? -- What is Freedom ? -- Sin: Fact of Fantasy ? -- God and Evil -- Why the Cross ? -- The Lord of Life -- The People of God.
