A We Without Boundaries

Let me cut to the chase: this book is a stunning achievement. Brian D. Robinette, associate professor of theology at Boston College, has gifted us with a deeply pondered work about God’s utterly gratuitous gift of creation, redemption, and fulfillment in Christ. The Difference Nothing Makes meditates on the loving God for whom “nothing” is fertile with possibilities. Drawing on thinkers such as William Desmond and René Girard, Karl Rahner and Sergius Bulgakov, Elizabeth Johnson and Thomas Merton, Robinette has produced a magisterial volume in which theology and spirituality are interwoven into a seamless whole.
