Summary
The good that God does--and that God calls us to do--is anchored in the fullness of good that God is. In this SCDS volume, Christopher R.J. Holmes explores the divine attribute of God's goodness by offering a theological interpretation of the Psalter and engaging with the church's rich theological tradition, especially Augustine and Aquinas.
