Sobre este artículo
Grand Rapids, MI: Zondervan, 2005. 1st. paperback. Good, 1st edition (3rd printing), some normal scuffing and wear; some pages dog-eared.. C (216 x 135). We are at our human best when we give and forgive.But we live in a world in which it makes little sense to do either one. In our increasingly graceless culture, where can we find the motivation to give? And how do we learn to forgive when forgiving seems counterintuitive or even futile? A deeply personal yet profoundly thoughtful book, Free of Charge explores these questions Рand the further questions to which they give rise Ð in light of GodÕs generosity and ChristÕs sacrifice for us. Miroslav Volf draws from popular culture as well as from a wealth of literary and theological sources, weaving his rich reflections around the sturdy frame of PaulÕs vision of GodÕs grace and Martin LutherÕs interpretation of that vision. Blending the best of theology and spirituality, he encourages us to echo in our own lives GodÕs generous giving and forgiving. A fresh examination of two practices at the heart of the Christian faith Рgiving and forgiving Рthe Archbishop of CanterburyÕs Lenten study book for 2006 is at the same time an introduction to Christianity. Even more, it is a compelling invitation to Christian faith as a way of life.ÒMiroslav Volf, one of the most celebrated theologians of our day, offers us a unique interweaving of intense reflection, vivid and painfully personal stories and sheer celebration of the giving God ... I cannot remember having read a better account of what it means to say that Jesus suffered for us in our place.ÓÐ Dr Rowan Williams, Archbishop of Canterbury
