"A lighthearted yet high-minded exploration of failure's ability to
serve as a gateway to grace. Readers will find this a
balm."--Publishers Weekly Many of us spend our days feeling like
we're the only one with problems, while everyone else has their act
together. But the sooner we realize that everyone struggles like we
do, the sooner we can show grace to ourselves and others. In Low
Anthropology, popular author and theologian David Zahl explores how
our ideas about human nature influence our expectations in
friendship, work, marriage, and politics. We all go through life
with an "anthropology"--an idea about what humans are like, our
potentials and our limitations. A high anthropology--thinking
optimistically about human nature--can breed perfectionism,
anxiety, burnout, loneliness, and resentment. Meanwhile, Zahl
invites readers into a biblically rooted and surprisingly
life-giving low anthropology, which fosters hope, deep connection
with others, lasting love, vulnerability, compassion, and
happiness. Zahl offers a liberating view of human nature, sin, and
grace, showing why the good news of Christianity is both urgent and
appealing. By embracing a more accurate view of human beings,
readers will discover a true and lasting hope.
