All That God Cares about

Angebote / Angebote:

One of the most influential evangelical voices in America shows how, by common grace, God takes delight in all things that glorify him--even those that happen beyond the boundaries of the church."In this winsome book, Mouw takes readers on an enlightening tour of the theologies of creation, redemption, and eschatology undergirding his hopeful theology of common grace. Irenic but never shy to respond to critique, Mouw gives us a book that will engage and inform readers from a wide range of theological standpoints. A delight to read!"--J. Todd Billings, Western Theological Seminary"God takes delight! Mouw has given many of us the gift of that truth through his writing and speaking and very being! In this clearly written book he engages many thinkers to help us know that redemption is cosmic in scope and to help us appreciate the work of the Holy Spirit beyond the boundaries of the Christian community."--Katherine Leary Alsdorf, senior advisor, Global Faith & Work Initiatives, Redeemer City to City"While this book is a thoughtfully crafted exploration of the doctrine of common grace, it is also a fascinating piece of theological autobiography. In it, one of our era's great irenic Christian thinkers shares his exploration of his Calvinist tradition, centered on his richly textured view of the distinctly Calvinistic idea of common grace. Although this book has an autobiographical quality, its point is not that we look at its author, rather, All That God Cares About invites us to look through Mouw's eyes as he shows us Calvinism, which, like Mouw himself, proves to be both firm and generous, systematic but never dull, clear yet mysterious. And because Mouw shows us his Calvinism through the lens of common grace, he lets us see how he views God and God's world. What a thing to share!"--James Eglinton, New College, University of Edinburgh
