A Joyful Theology: Creation, Commitment, and an Awesome God

by Sara Maitland

Overview

For Sara Maitland, the Scriptures, tradition, and the creation are sources of God's greatest gift to us-the desire and the ability to know something about God. In A Joyful Theology, Maitland makes a lively exploration of creation in order to learn more about the Creator. What she finds is a God who inspires awe, who calls us to be committed to one another, and who invites us to live in joy.
