Product Price Comparison
Radical Christian Humanism is a rich, spiritually grounded philosophy that combines the dignity and worth ofevery human being with a radical commitment to justice, compassion, and the transforming love of Christ. It isdeeply rooted in Christian theology but pushes beyond conventional religiosity to engage the full reality of humanexistence—especially the suffering, the marginalized, the oppressed, and the forgotten. It’s radical not becauseit’s extreme or rebellious for its own sake, but because it goes to the root (from Latin radix) of what it means tobe human in God’s image — and what it means to live that truth in the world.The “Meditations of Harmony and Dissonance” are complementary to the affirmations and commitments ofRadical Christian Humanism. They are like Zen Koans or poems from the Desert Fathers. They do not close likedoors or resolve like symphonies. They drift like smoke from a censer held by a blind angel in a forgotten chapel.They speak in tongues of wind and thunder, laughter and sobbing.And through it all — harmony, dissonance — the One Voice murmurs: Be human. Be holy. Be still.
