Summary: "Werner G. Jeanrond approaches hope from the perspective of a theology of love. He distinguishes human hopes from hope as God's gift to humanity and discusses the challenges of a Christian praxis of hope in today's world. Remembering plays a crucial role for acts of hope, as does the insight into the transcendent nature of hope: nobody can hope for herself or himself alone. Hope thus invites personal communal, political and global participation and gives rise to a powerful constellation of symbols, including heaven, hell, and purgatory, that call for interpretation. Reasons to Hope contributes to the multi-religious conversation on hope, death, and the human future in our universe"-- Provided by publisher.
