Witness to Life Worth Living: Reflections on Miroslav Volf's Ethics of Embrace

This book is an exposition of the basic themes of the work of Miroslav Volf the Yale ecumenical theologian who has written much about the ethics of embrace life worth living and human flourishing and my personal reflections on these themes. The volume is the first of its kind. So far there has been no attempt to systematize Volfs theology and ethics. However the book is not just a simple description of Volfs work. It tries to merge into one single theological reflection Volfs two basic paradigms: the ethics of embrace and the concept of life worth living. It also demonstrates a unique approach from the perspective of the personal and spiritual reflections of the author who shares a worldview similar to Miroslav Volfs. The book is strengthened by many references to personal interviews and conversations with Miroslav Volf. Witness to Life Worth Living is a critical scholarly engagement with my work. [Santrac] dare[s] to leave the secure ground of scholarly analysis and venture into the choppy waters of lived experience. --Miroslav Volf Aleksandar S.
