Jungel sets out to establish a basis for a theology of God the crucified while avoiding the shoals of theism and atheism. He warns of the danger, rooted in the fact that modernity no longer dares to think God, of talking God to death, of silencing God with too much God-talk. Jungel analyzes what our possibilities are of thinking and speaking God and concludes that theology has to become the narrative of God''s humanity. This second book in the series helps the reader to gain a more explicit awareness of the contemporary issues Jungel''s theology grapples with.>
