Description
Without Buddha I Could Not Be a Christian explores how a crisis of faith can be overcome by drawing inspiration from Buddhism. Paul F. Knitter examines key aspects of Christianity, such as prayer and the concept of life after death, to argue that a Buddhist perspective can enrich our understanding of the faith.
The book presents a compelling case for a more person-centred approach to Christianity, where individual experience takes precedence over liturgy and tradition. This thought-provoking work is likely to resonate with Christians seeking new insights into their faith.
