Overview of God Here and Now

Karl Barth's theological masterpiece challenges how we encounter God today. Revered by Pope Pius XII as equal to Thomas Aquinas, this revolutionary work sparked debates on divine presence that transformed Protestant thought. Discover why theologians still wrestle with its provocative question: Is God truly here and now?

When God Refuses to Stay Distant

What if everything we've been told about finding meaning-through self-improvement, political ideologies, or even religious rituals-has missed the most startling truth? Karl Barth's "God Here and Now" doesn't offer another spiritual framework to try on for size. It announces something far more unsettling: God has already acted decisively in human history, and this action changes everything about who we are and how we live. While modern culture oscillates between therapeutic spirituality and militant secularism, Barth insists on something radically different-God is not an idea to contemplate but a living presence who has entered our world in Jesus Christ. This isn't philosophy or mythology. It's the claim that divinity became flesh, suffered death, and rose again-not as metaphor but as concrete historical event. This divine invasion demands our response. We cannot remain neutral observers analyzing religious concepts from a safe distance. God's presence confronts us directly, asking not for intellectual assent but for total reorientation of life. In an age where religious institutions decline yet spiritual hunger persists, Barth's urgent message cuts through both empty religiosity and hollow materialism with a single, provocative assertion: God is here, now, and everything depends on how we respond.
