This is a chapter that should appear in Theology of Colin Gunton, being edited by Lincoln Harvey for T & T Clark (forthcoming in 2010). 

 I suggest that while there are many significant insights in the thought of Colin Gunton, there may be a better way for Christians to think about the origin and nature of modernity.  For more information about the volume, you can click here: http://www.continuumbooks.com/books/detail.aspx?BookId=134652&SntUrl=142854&SubjectId=1080&Subject2Id=1093
