Bog beskrivelse

In this beautiful and moving book, bestselling author TimDeRoche makes the case that human beings are hardwired to worship. 

Drawing from evolutionary psychology, he argues that wecannot help but experience life as a gift. And, whether we admit it or not, our biological instincts leave usyearning for a right relationship with the unseen giver.

What makes us human?  Itis the instinct to give and receive gifts from one another.  DeRoche shows how thinkers throughout historyhave obsessed over issues of reciprocity and social obligation: RalphWaldo Emerson, Friedrich Nietzsche, the anthropologist Marcel Mauss, theFreudian psychologist Ernest Becker, and so many more.  And these themes echo through the Hebrew andChristian scriptures, which can be read as an extended meditation on what itmeans to be indebted to God for life itself.

The Grateful Beast offers a new take on the plight ofmodern man, urging us to acknowledge the full mystery of life and to accept theweight of infinite gratitude.
