1. Awakening Wonder
This book argues that cultivating a disposition of wonder and an imaginative sensibility is essential to authentic religious faith, critiquing modern secularism’s reduction of belief to propositional assent and proposing instead an aesthetic and formative approach rooted in beauty, narrative, and ritual; it draws on theological and philosophical resources to show how worship, the arts, education, and family life can awaken a sacramental imagination that nurtures commitment, moral formation, and a deeper apprehension of mystery, and it offers practical implications for churches, schools, and cultural engagement.
