Description
Faith, hope, and love are the three core realities of Christian existence. Far from being self-grounded, they are rooted in God's action and being in the gospel of Jesus Christ. Reflecting on the meaning these three realities have for us today, Christophe Chalamet argues that we gain a deeper understanding of them as we consider them in their interrelation, rather than separately. The first disciples sometimes described their burgeoning tradition as "the Way." The apostle Paul, who reflected on faith, hope, and love in his epistles, praised love as "a most excellent way." This book in constructive theology, drawing from a wealth of thinkers from the Christian tradition broadly conceived, presents faith, hope, and love as the abiding response to God's faithfulness, God's justice, and God's love, for the sake of this world.
