The root cause of this looming existential crisis is our addiction to consumption of material goods, and our unquestioning acceptance of the outrageous maldistribution of wealth among individuals and nations. Can we throw off these addictions and assumptions? McCarthy believes that we can. He starts by delving into the last two thousand years of Christian history. He traces the role of Jesus' revolutionary teaching in a series of dramatic convulsions of human consciousness that have, suddenly and unexpectedly, changed attitudes and behaviour in previously unthinkable ways.

Like a voracious beast, culture often demands that we adjust, dilute, or even abandon the profound truths that underpin our faith. This book is a journey through the complexities of this struggle.
