For the Life of the World
The question of what makes life worth living is more vital now than ever. In
today's pluralistic, postsecular world, universal values are dismissed as mere
matters of private opinion, and the question of what constitutes flourishing
life--for ourselves, our neighbors, and the planet as a whole--is neglected in
our universities, our churches, and our culture at large. Although we
increasingly have technology to do almost anything, we have little sense of
what is truly worth accomplishing.
In this provocative new contribution to public theology, world-renowned
theologian Miroslav Volf (named America's New Public Intellectual" by Scot " McKnight on his Jesus Creed blog) and Matthew Croasmun explain that the
intellectual tools needed to rescue us from our present malaise and meet our
new cultural challenge are the tools of theology. A renewal of theology is
crucial to help us articulate compelling visions of the good life, find our way
through the maze of contested questions of value, and answer the fundamental
question of what makes life worth living.
