“Reading ‘Mercy: The Essence of the Gospel and the Key to Christian Life’ helped me better understand the argument many have on God’s mercy and His justice. It is one book that has helped me put it all in perspective,” Kukah adds.
The book examines God’s mercy while raising questions such as empathy and compassion as a starting point for theological reflection on the topic. The author does this with reflections on what it means to believe in a merciful God; how divine mercy and divine justice are related and how we can speak of a sympathetic and compassionate God.
