About

Walter Cardinal Kasper has written, "It is time, it is the right time, to speak of God."  This book invites readers to use their God-given ability to work through important questions that many people have about God today: Why is God so angry in the Bible?  Is the biblical God male or female (or what)?  Who is Satan?  Why do people suffer?  By exploring the Bible's answers to these and other biblical questions, people can come to understand better their living and loving God.

Reviews

"Mark Smith's new book should be required reading for every student of Scripture, no matter how proficient. This is a theo-logy (study of God) for ordinary searching people as well as for scholars. Smith deals clearly and sensitively with difficult and ambiguous issues such as God's anger, God's gender, and human suffering. His questions lead us to reflect on our own situation, and his conclusion
Irene Nowell, OSB
"Mark Smith has now turned his considerable expertise and scholarship to the question of How Human Is God? Certainly a challenging subject to attempt to write about and interesting to read about! . . . Smith delves not only into gender and sexuality but also into areas such as anger, suffering as punishment, the demonic, and so much more."
Joseph Jensen, OSB
"Smith's approach to the Bible is refreshing and serves as a model for how the Bible might be studied in churches. . . . How Human Is God is a book that can be read with profit by both scholars and lay people alike. . . ."
Wilburn T. Stancil, Catholic Books Review
