Other: Loving Self, God and Neighbour in a World of Fractures

By Kester Brewin

"International terrorism, racism, youth violence and religious fundamentalism ... our willingness to engage "the other" is at the heart of the majority of contemporary challenges today. Beginning with Jesus' instruction to love God and to love our neighbor as we love ourselves, Kester Brewin explores how we might better engage "the other" within the Self, within God and within the worlds we inhabit. Drawing on Brewin's work as a theologian, church founder, poet and teacher, this accessible and highly original work prompts us to reconsider the key question, "What kind of selves do we need to be in order to live in harmony with others?" and lays out a fresh vision for Christian practice and community in the 21st century."
