- "This is a controversial book both by nature and by design. It could not be otherwise, for it is in part an attempt to answer the question most often put to me after twelve years as religion editor of the largest newspaper in the country [the Toronto Star]. That is: 'As a former Anglican priest and professor of theology, with more than a decade's experience reporting on and discussing religious issues in the mass media, what do you yourself believe' ?" -- Intro., p.[1].
- Contents: Introduction -- The Uncomfortable Christian -- Searching for Christmas and Easter -- Speaking Out -- After the Virgin Mary -- The Electronic Pew -- People -- Travels in the Holy Land -- On Death and Dying -- Conclusion -- Selected References.
