Repairing Eden : Humility, Mysticism, and the Existential Problem of Religious Diversity PDF
by Mark S. McLeod-Harrison
Description
How do Christians keep from losing their faith when they discover that other faiths are as justified as their own?
Mark McLeod-Harrison draws on his training in analytic philosophy and his knowledge of Christian mysticism to provide a compelling analysis of, and unique solution to, the problem religious diversity poses for Christians.
In Repairing Eden, McLeod-Harrison describes this dilemma as an existential problem internal to the Christian faith.
He suggests that Christian humility and Christian mysticism can provide a joint path toward a kind of metaphysical certainty - the mystic path, the path of bearing one's own cross - that can become a means of more deeply knowing God.
Repairing Eden weaves theology, philosophy, and pastoral concerns into a spiritual-philosophical solution to a deeply important challenge to Christian faith.
