The Christian Churches should renew their teaching and reform their institutional structures to convey the wonder of the Christian mystery, the challenging nature of Jesus' message, and God's deep, merciful love for us. The author suggests that Christians should engage with the intractable problems of society today with hope, as God will not abandon us or his world.

The enigmatic 'Other' that many of us sense and that Christianity, drawing on the life of Jesus, calls God, serves as the book's starting point. However, the Christian Churches are no longer effectively conveying the wonder of the Christian mystery, the challenging nature of Jesus' message for the world, and also God's profound, merciful love for us and the invitation into a relationship with him through prayer or through other spiritual practices, including pilgrimage. Church teaching has become stale and routine. It should undergo a fundamental renewal and its institutional structures reformed for the contemporary world. The book's final chapters explore how Christians should engage with the seemingly intractable problems that characterize society today, such as environmental destruction, the inhuman exploitation of many people, and the obscene levels of inequality. An autobiographical thread runs through the text as the author, a committed Catholic Christian, draws on experiences and vignettes from his own life. The final conclusion is one of hope; God will not abandon us or his world, though we do not know how the future will unfold.
