The Gracing Of Human Experience: Rethinking The Relationship Between Nature And Grace

Book Summary


The Gracing of Human Experience explores the different ways Christian thinkers have understood humanity in its relationship to divine grace and identifies the misconceptions which have in the past skewed the theological understanding of that relationship. Donald L. Gelpi, S.J., shows how to enlarge on the thought of Charles Sanders Peirce in order to formulate a metaphysics of experience. Gelpi implements the strategy suggested in the final chapter of Varieties of Transcendental Experience for regrounding theological thinking in a development of Peirce's semeiotic realism. He establishes a dialogue between dialectical and foundational thinking in developing a theological doctrine of supernatural grace.
