Participation in God : A Study in Christian Doctrine and Metaphysics Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Few ideas have excited greater interest among theologians in recent decades than the idea of 'participation'.

In thinking about creation, it is the notion that everything comes from, and depends upon, God, inviting the language of sharing, or of an exemplar and its images; in thinking about redemption, it points to the restoration of that image, and is expressed in the language of communion with God and with the redeemed community.

In this volume, Andrew Davison considers these themes in unprecedented breadth, investigating the fundamental character of participation as it can be applied to a wide range of theological topics.

Exploring what it means to know, to love, to do good, and to live together well, he shows how these ideas animate a particular understanding of human life and how we relate to the world around us.

His book offers the most comprehensive survey of participation to date, contributing to detailed discussions of these themes among academic theologians.
