Customer Reviews

low anthropology as a reflection of God

Really enjoyed this look at high vs. low anthropology or a way of looking at fellow humans and life in general. As a Lutheran I would compare this to law vs. Gospel. Comparing others against a perfect ideal vs. extending grace and mercy because we are all sinners who have been redeemed because of Christ's saving love. Great modern references and Scripture.
