Lee Barrett discusses the uniqueness and challenges of
Kierkegaard's approach to theology. He examines Kierkegaard's
explicit reflections on the appropriate way to engage in the
theological task, as well as shows how the theme of God's
"otherness" is held in dialectical tension with the theme of God's
intimate love. Barrett discusses Kierkegaard's key reflections of
the nature and purpose of human life as a paradoxical journey
toward self-fulfilment through a self-emptying in which the self
more intensively reflects God's self-giving love. He examines the
works that describe sin as both a condition in which the individual
is trapped and as a culpable act for which the individual must
assume responsibility. Barrett explores Kierkegaard's thoughts on
sin, his descriptions of Jesus Christ as the enactment in time of
God's eternal self-giving compassion, his view of faith and his
critique of culturally established Christianity as a form of fatal
religious anaesthesia. This volume includes the following
pedagogical features: - Each chapter contains its own introduction,
explanatory notes, discussion questions and recommendation for
further reading in both the primary and secondary literature -
Includes links to Kierkegaardian texts provided by the Kierkegaard
Research Center of the University of Copenhagen, the Howard and
Edna Hong Kierkegaard Library of St Olaf College, as well as the
resources of the Soren Kierkegaard Society
