For generations, Christian communities have meditated upon the seven last words of Jesus on the cross. Gathered from across the Gospel accounts of the crucifixion, these sayings still speak to us today. In an age of uncertainty and suspicion, Paul Dominiak explores how each of the seven last words attends to doubt as the refining fire of faith, rather than as its enemy. The Falling of Dusk puts into critical conversation some of the great doubters of religion with the breadth of the Christian tradition and contemporary theological voices. Each chapter considers one last word spoken on the cross, unpacking why Christians should embrace suspicious doubt, and how a suspicious Christianity might challenge doubters. Aimed at those who embrace, reject, or are uncertain about faith, Paul Dominiak invites us to reflect in unconventional ways on our assumptions, anxieties, suspicions and beliefs through a conventional Lenten form of meditation.
Dr Paul Dominiak is Senior Tutor and Fellow of Jesus College Cambridge. He was previously Chaplain to Trinity College Cambridge, Dean and Fellow of Jesus College in the same university, and then Vice Principal of Westcott House, an Anglican theological college in Cambridge. His other publications include Richard Hooker: The Architecture of Participation (T&T Clark), an academic work quite unlike this. He is an affiliated lecturer in the Divinity Faculty in Cambridge.
