Traditional discussions of the Christian doctrine of providence
often center on the relation between divine agency and human
freedom, seeking to offer an account of the extent to which a
person is free before God, the first cause of all things. Terry J.
Wright argues that such riddles of causation cannot determine the
content of providence, and suggests a unique and alternative
framework that depicts God's activity in terms of divine
faithfulness to that which God has made. Providence is not God as
first cause acting through creaturely secondary causation; rather,
providence is God's sovereign mediation of the divine presence
across the whole world, achieved through creaturely faithfulness
made possible and guaranteed by his own faithful action in Jesus
Christ.
