Beschreibung
Karl Rahner (1904-84), the influential German Jesuit theologian,
famously claimed that the more scientific theology is the more spiritually and
pastorally relevant it will be. This book attempts to demonstrate the truth
of this claim by drawing together resources scattered throughout Rahner's
voluminous writings in order to make his wisdom more available for people
seeking a deeper spirituality and a more effective pastoral ministry.
Humble Confidence provides summaries of Rahner's main ideas on anthropology,
God, Christ, and the Church, with an emphasis on their practical
significance. Finally, it serves as a response to critics who claim that Rahner
is passé by emphasizing the power of his theology to illumine contemporary
issues with the light of the Gospel.
