A Whisper of God is a series of essays revolving around the theme of how Christians might respond to the rapidly changing Ireland in which they now live. Bishop Richard Clarke does not seek to find easy answers to the confusion in which many thinking people now live, but instead suggests new directions in which the church and its members should move. The different chapters of the book cover such diverse topics as the relationship of Christianity to other faiths, changing attitudes to sexuality, and the victim culture in the Ireland of today. The author is insistent throughout these essays that the different traditions within the Irish church must move unitedly, if the many people who have become disenchanted with the institutional church are ever to believe that there is - at the heart of everything - a Christian gospel of love and truth which remains untainted and full of hope for the future.

Über den Autor
Richard Clarke is the Church of Ireland Bishop of Meath and Kildare. Born in Dublin in 1949, he studied history and theology in Dublin and London Universities respectively, and holds a doctorate from the former. Although he retains research interests principally in the field of history, he has in recent years become fascinated by philosophical theology and the relationship between literature and theology, and his book in this area of interest, And Is It True?, was published by Dominican Publications in 2000. A former dean of residence in Trinity College Dublin, rector of Bandon in west Cork, and dean of Saint Fin Barre's Cathedral Cork, Richard Clarke has been Bishop of Meath and Kildare since 1996. He is married to Linda, who is a teacher.
