This collection of Tillich's essays and chapters from (most of) his books fit gracefully into the editor's theme divisions. The greatest gem is the Invocation: The Lost Dimension in Religion from a Saturday Evening Post mag. edition. It comes from a time (1958) when Tillich was arguably at his most vigorous stage of writing and the writing would have otherwise been lost in our internet age (I checked and it is not available online at this time). The other selections cover most of his subject matter and provide a thorough/ in depth introduction to the core of each of his books. There are limited essays from the Systematic Theology series (which I have not read). Some material from other books have been left out that I feel would need a place in this anthology, but editor F. Forrester Church obviously could not include all before this becomes a collected works. Highly recommended as a starting point or even as a substitute for some of his slightly dated books (such as Courage to Be). ( )
