- Summary:
- Hans Urs von Balthasar once said that theology should be done on one's knees, suggesting that the attitude it should create in the reader or hearer is one of adoration and praise for the divine mystery. Few contemporary theologians achieve this effect, but here Kevin Seasoltz comes close. This book is a profound but simply written mediation on the central mysteries of the Christian faiththe trinity, redemption, the Eucharist, human participation in the divine life and solidarity with one another--in a contemporary idiom.
