The material that makes up this book was written or spoken at two different levels. The first part consists of pieces done for a mass-circulation readership. The second part presupposes a slightly more informed and, with the exception again of its first chapter, a predominantly Christian audience. Each part stands by itself, though the subjects interlock.

The Human Face of God

Westminster Press

Originally published in 1963, Honest to God ignited passionate debate about the nature of Christian belief and doctrine in the white heat of a secular revolution. In addition, it articulated the anxieties of a generation who saw these traditional fundamentals as no longer acceptable or necessarily credible. Reissued on the 55th anniversary of the original publication, Honest to God remains a work of honest theology that continues to inspire many in their search for credible Christianity in today's world.

The human face of God

A comment from one reader: "The Human Face of God" is an academic work, but it is one of those rare pieces which sacrifices none of its scholarship while being quite accessible, even for the lay person. Robinson starts with the humanity of Christ and works his way up from there, resulting in a very, very high Christology, which I suspect will surprise those who think of Robinson as a liberal who considered Christ to simply be a good man. Far from it. Robinson pushes deep into the biblical portrait of the Christ, and he never sacrifices all the imagery and claims that the Bible makes possible for Christ. Moreover, he situates his Christology within the context of the debates and writings of the early church (most importantly, guarding against the heresy of docetism at ever turn), and he also stands in conversation with the great theologians of the Christian tradition, especially Thomas Aquinas and Karl Barth. Again, the scope of the scholarship is hard to even fathom, and the methodology is exquisite."
