1. The Mystery Of The Supernatural
Nature and Grace
A rigorous historical-theological study that traces how Christian thought has understood the relation between nature and grace, arguing that human beings are oriented toward a gratuitous, supernatural destiny rather than a self-sufficient “pure nature.” Through careful readings of patristic, medieval, and modern authors, it critiques the modern severing of nature from its supernatural end, defends the primacy and transformative power of grace, and calls for a recovery of a theological vision in which Christ and the promise of participation in the divine life are central.
