More DescriptionTHE HUMAN EXPERIENCE OF GOD In this book, which can be considered as one of the most original, daring, and signifi cant contributions to contemporary spirituality in general and to Christian theology, philosophy, and anthropology in particular, Dr. Maalouf 's method is neither to build an abstract or utopian system nor to preach or sermonize. His approach is to question, explore, suggest, and invite the reader-erudite or not, Catholic or not, politically correct or not-to a new level of comprehension and way of seeing things. Whoever, however, and wherever we are, our everyday lives could become the place and time where the sacred and the secular meet. He proposes that our challenge, then, is how to be Christlike, and not just "Christian." Then the true miracle of Christmas can become the miracle of transformed messengers and a transfi gured world in which "all things [come] into being through him" ( John 1:3).
