Questions of Faith cover

Leading religious and cultural commentator, Peter Berger, explores how and what we can believe in modern times.


  • Deals clearly with questions such as ‘Does God exist? What was so special about Jesus? How can one be Christian in a pluralistic society?
  • Structured around key phrases from the Apostles’ Creed.
  • Draws on the Christian theological tradition and the work of other relevant thinkers, such as Freud and Simone Weil.
  • The author takes the position of an open-minded sceptic, exploring his own beliefs.

"This book gives us the mature reflection of a really major contributor to issues of faith in our contemporary situation. Peter Berger is a master of the art of communication who educates his readers by including them in his own inner conversation in all its honesty and with repeated flashes of clarification and illumination. Once again his is a voice that has to be attended to." David Martin, Emeritus Professor, London School of Economics

"[T]his is a lively work of apologetic that will be found valuable by believers and open-minded seekers alike." Church of England Newspaper
