The (for)giving God

Christian Century reviews Miroslav Volf’s new book Free of Charge: Giving and Forgiving in a Culture Stripped of Grace and likes it a lot. I just picked up a copy the other day and am looking forward to digging in (I thought his Exclusion and Embrace was really excellent). It also carries a foreword from Rowan Williams if you’re looking for an imprimatur; the good archbishop has selected Free of Charge as his recommended Lenten book for 2006.
