Description:
Even when 'everything is going well' and there is not much left to be desired, the 'slow questions' often arise: why all this? What is it all good for? Man lives for seventy, eighty years... and then returns to where he came from, the silent and dark. Sometimes it is illness or disability, then death or the breaking off of a relationship, an unfulfilled desire that leaves us with questions. Those who want to treat others with care and want to help them cannot avoid these slow questions. Precisely because pastoral and other answers have largely faded and are missing, these questions have become all the more tormenting. The way in which Charles Vergeer manages to penetrate these questions without coming up with premature answers is particularly inspiring. Nothing is invented here, people are made to think here.
