About This Item
Strikingly illuminated by a series of fine art paintings, Alister McGrath's new volume seeks to engage both the mind and the imagination as he vividly explores teh divine compassion that led God to sacrifice his only Son in order to save a world oppressed and unable to help itself. Poetry, prayer and theological reflection are interwoven with commentary on the ideas conveyed through Amedio Bocchi's On the Lawn (illustrating the theme of adoption), Sir Edward John Pynter's The Prodigal's Return, Jacopo Bassano's the Last Supper, Caravaqggio's The Taking of Christ, Antonio Ciseri's Ecce Homo, Salvador Dali's Christ of St. John of the Cross and El Greco's Pieta. The result not only strengthens our grasp of who Christ is and what he has achieved; it also helps us rejoice in the immeasurable difference that his death and resurrection make to our everyday lives.--Book jacket
