Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The Way of Self-Giving Love offers a bold and intellectually rigorous vision of God, creation, and the unfolding of the universe grounded in the dynamic power of love. Drawing deeply on theology, philosophy, and the natural sciences, this work reimagines divine action not as coercive control but as kenotic self-giving-God's continual 'pouring out' into the world. Engaging major thinkers such as Thomas Oord, Karol Wojtyla, Charles Sanders Peirce, and Jürgen Moltmann, the author develops a rich account of 'kenotically-donated love' as the animating force behind both creation and evolution. In this vision, love is not passive or abstract, but the very structure of reality itself, empowering relationality, contingency, and the emergence of life. Bridging the divide between science and theology, this book challenges traditional doctrines of divine omnipotence and creation, proposing instead a model of cooperative agency between God and the natural world. Evolution, chance, and constraint are not threats to faith but expressions of a deeper, relational order shaped by divine love. By integrating insights from evolutionary theory with a robust theological framework, The Way of Self-Giving Love invites readers to reconsider the nature of God's power, the meaning of creation, and humanity's place within a living, developing cosmos. This is a work for scholars, students, and thoughtful readers seeking a compelling and innovative account of faith in dialogue with the modern world.…
