| Summary |
"The Spirit and the Common Good offers a public theology from a view of creation as the household of the Triune God, bearing the imge of God in a mutual sharing of divine love and justice and as a sacrament of the divine presence. Daniela Augustine elaborates the application of this vision not only within the life of the church but also in the realms of politics, economics, and care for creation. This renewed vision becomes the foundation for constructing a theological ethic of planetary flourishing in and through commitment to a sustainable communal praxis of a shared future with the other."--Back cover |
