Elementary Monotheism: Exposure, Limitation, and Need (Volume I), Action and Language in Historical Religion (Volume II)

More about the book

A philosopher's exploration of the central commitments of a life that recognizes God as bringing good in all of life, hard and painful parts included. In the first volume, Exposure, Limitation, and Needs, Porter, who is not identified, takes exposure, limitation, and need as exemplary of the pains of life, and looks at the response of faith that transforms them into blessings. In the second volume, Action and Language in Historical Religion, he adds the dimension of historical living to the original affirmation of human life in the world. The volumes are paged and indexed separately. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
