More about the book
Exploring the eschatological character of Christian faith, Stanley Hauerwas emphasizes its relevance for the church in today's world. He discusses the church's political role, highlighting themes of unity and sacrifice in the face of its divided nature. The concept of "end" is examined both as a chronological conclusion and a goal. Finally, Hauerwas shifts focus to individual Christians, addressing how an eschatological perspective informs understanding of suffering, virtue, and the process of dying.
