This book will offer an account not so much of God's Providence an
sich, but rather of divine providence as experienced by believers
and unbelievers. It will not ask questions about whether and how
God knows the future, or how suffering can be accounted for (as is
the case in the treatments by William Lane Craig, Richard
Swinburne, or J. Sanders), but will focus on prayer and
decision-making as a faithful and/or desperate response to the
perception of God as having some controlling influence. The
following gives an idea of the ground to be covered: The patristic
foundations of the Christian view of Providence; The medieval
synthesis of 'objective' and 'subjective' views; Reformational and
Early Modern: the shift towards piety; Modern Enlightenment:
Providence and Ethics; Barth and the Sceptics; The sense of
Providence in the Modern Novel and World.
