"Christian faith is, it seems to me, most basically a claim that the universe is neither indifferent nor malevolent
but that there is a power (and a personal power at that) which is on the side of life and fulfillment.
Moreover, the Christian believes that we have some clues for fleshing out this claim
in the life, death, and appearances of Jesus of Nazareth."
