"A Theology for the Rest of Us," draws on a variety of religious traditions as well as science and literature to help people develop their own spirituality and the values with which they want to live their lives. At the end of the book, readers are asked to imagine they are being honored at a banquet. "What have been your achievements? When have you been the most proud? Do you have any regrets?" are just three of the questions that can provide people with a framework so they can live lives in keeping with their hopes and priorities.
