“"In an age whose self-appointed prophets scream 'God is dead!'; where objective Truth is replaced by subjective truths; where the 'big stories' (metanarratives) are rejected as totalizing and oppressive--Kopp's work insightfully shows that postmodern youth yearn for an encounter with the Transcendent; that their openness to otherness leaves them open to the radically Other; and that the authentic Christian 'big story' can be experienced by them as inclusive, open, and liberating. Two postmodern thumbs up!”
