We live in challenging times for Christians and the church in Western nations such as Australia which are now secular, multicultural and multi-religious. We are in a globalised world dominated by economic considerations and media reporting. The attitudes people adopt are influenced by postmodern thinking which is sceptical, relativistic and pluralistic. Enlightenment thinking with its emphasis on reason and science continues to be regarded as the way to truth. Religious tradition, Christianity in particular, is viewed with scepticism as to its motives and claims to truth. As someone who does adhere to Christian faith, I wanted to write a book that explores what Jesus' good news really was, what the Christian grand narrative is about especially in the light of the kinds of challenges that we face. My desire was to assist people to know what Jesus' good news was really about and to give people confidence that the Christian metanarrative can stand up to the challenges we face. It provides a true perspective on life that can still be affirmed and recommended. Moreover, it is not just a matter of belief but calls for discipleship, namely living the way of Jesus.
