Synopsis

This book might be considered a Christian version of Bernard Lonergan's (1904-1984) *Insight,* or *Insight* for those who find that Jesus is central to life and its meaning. In addition, chapters 9–16 of the book parallel chapters 6–14 of *Method in Theology.* This is another piece of my Christianizing strategy, though it will be seen to have a great deal to do with rescuing *Method in Theology* from both bad press and neglect. It also has a great deal to do with moving theology into respectable companionship with the general explanatory drive of the mature sciences. The full character of that explanatory drive is the topic of the companion volume *Futurology Express.* That fuller characterization overlaps theology with the integral cyclic dynamics of culture, thus including implicitly the full spread of religious cultures, though that is a topic only skimpily treated in the present work and deserves a third volume. From someone else!
