Description

Christian theology, based on the historical revelation that God is the Creator of all things, assumes that people can know the truth, love the goodness, and delight in the beauty of all things because the Creator first knows and loves and delights in all creation. This volume explains that the Creator, Happiness Itself, knows truth and loves goodness and delights in beauty; consequently, whatever proceeds from the Creator, "all creation", is knowable, lovable and enjoyable. Therefore, the Creator can be seen in the truth and goodness and beauty of all things, and people can have communion in delighting in all things. Father Navone uses basic points of reference, such as divine revelation and Jesus's farewell discourse, to explore a theology of beauty. The book communicates a theological appreciation of people's graced ability to contemplate the divine beauty in all things. John Navone is the author of "Seeking God in Story" and "Self: Giving and Sharing - The Trinity and Human Fulfillment".
