What does it mean to believe in God? Can God possibly be almighty in the midst of so much evil and disaster? How am I to understand the meaning of Jesus Christ's ministry and resurrection? To what purpose is the church called? And what does it really mean to follow Christ in today's broken world? Tying together the answers to all of these questions and addressing perplexities such as the possibility of miracles and how to read the Bible, Rowan Williams demonstrates that each of the basic tenets of Christian faith flows from one fundamental belief: that God is completely worthy of our trust. With vast knowledge of Christian history and theology and characteristically elegant prose, Rowan Williams is a superb and compassionate guide through the richness and depth of Christian faith.… (altro)

Former Archbishop of Canterbury Rowan Williams has a great ability to distil intricate church doctrine and history into easily-understandable readings without losing any of the original's magnitude. In Tokens of Trust, he takes the two great creeds of Christianity (the Apostles' and Nicene) and examines the implications to our faith and to our lives when we affirm that we believe those ancient and yet always current and true words.

This short but detailed work is perfect for devotional study or for adults preparing for Confirmation or Baptism since it succinctly details the key elements of the creeds and in a conversational yet not overly flippant tone, Williams covers the essentials of faith for both newcomers and seasoned believers.
