Lloyd Geering, a minister and professor in the Presbyterian Church in New Zealand, was tried for heresy in 1967. This is a reflective and honest account of his personal journey.Like Bishops John Robinson in England and John Shelby Spong in the USA, he became an innovative and challenging voice in the emerging debates about God and religion in the second half of the twentieth century. His 1966 article 'What Does the Resurrection Mean?' (printed in this volume) led to the famed heresy trial. Found innocent, Geering became the foundation professor of religion at Victoria University, and continued a highly successful career as an academic and writer.
