Exploration Into Goodness
No Customer Reviews
In this memorable, haunting book Frank Wright, well known for his writing and work in the area of pastoral care, explores the nature of the neglected subject of goodness from a background of modern literature and philosophy as well as theology, and indicates different lines on which it may be nurtured. For years, he points out, there has been a deafening silence on the subject of goodness even in theological and church life. Evil is so prevalent and pervasive, so relentlessly portrayed in the media, that the possibility and attraction of goodness is clouded over. Yet it is there, and as we begin to look at what makes us call people 'good', we are led beyond them to that which is beyond themselves, to God. What Frank Wright offers is an exploration and an invitation: gentle, sensitive, perceptive. It is also in its quiet way a challenge -and one that is difficult to forget. Frank Wright is a Canon Emeritus of Manchester Cathedral.
