Tóm tắt
Gratitude is not limited to what we immediately benefit from. Truly grateful people will set what they appreciate in the context of everything that they inherit. Indeed they will grow as they find their place in the wholeness of the created order as revealed in evolution. Our present human condition embodies the world’s history, in a manner of speaking, and is the recipient of everything we enjoy through the sensitivities and inquiries of previous generations. If our curiosity and our gratitude are to be real, they must be all-embracing. In this chapter, I place who we are and what we know, believe, and practice in an evolutionary, historical context, which I believe is enlarged and deepened when grounded in the universal theological framework I have outlined. God’s gracious relationship with his world is coterminous with its life. © 2015, Kenneth Wilson.
