Om denne bog
Persons anguished by another''s profound suffering are often outraged by well-intentioned efforts to console them which suggest that God ''sent'' that horrific suffering to their loved one for a ''purpose'' according to a tailor-made ''plan'' for just that person. However, the outraged reaction simply deepens the anguish. This book argues that such ''consolation'' is theologically problematic because it assumes that unrestricted power is what makes God ''God.'' Against that it outlines an account of ''who'' and ''what'' the Triune God is, framed in terms of God''s intrinsic ''glory,'' the attractive and perfectly self-expressive self-giving in love that is God''s life, and sets limits to the range of things we can say God ''does.'' Correlatively it offers an account of different senses in which God is ''sovereign'' and ''powerful'', one which reflects three ways God relates to all else: to create, to bless eschatologically, and to reconcile, as is scripturally narrated.
