SEEKING THE GOD BEYOND

Apophatic theology or negative theology attempts to describe God the Divine Good by negation to speak only in terms of what may not be said about the perfect goodness that is God It is a way of coming to an understanding of who God is which has played a significant role across centuries of Christian tradition but is very often treated with suspicion by those engaging in theological study today  Seeking the God Beyond explores the difference a negative theological approach might make to our faith and practice and offers an introduction to this oftmisunderstood form of spirituality Beginning by placing apophatic spirituality within its biblical roots the book later considers the key pioneers of apophatic faith and a diverse range of thinkers including CS Lewis and Keats to inform us in our negative theological journey
