The Radiance of God: Christian Doctrine through the Image of Divine Light
Cascade 书 - An Imprint of Wipf and Stock Publishers, 2021
“蒂莫西·L. Smith and Mildred Bangs Wynkoop Book Award”
The image of God as light abounds in Scripture and the Christian tradition. In The Radiance of God, Douglas M. Koskela explores the theme of divine radiance across the span of Christian doctrine. The book develops a constructive account of the Christian gospel that traces the journey from darkness into the marvelous light of God. Drawing on an ecumenical range of voices in the tradition, Koskela frames the discussion in terms of three central concepts: allure, 运动, 和快乐. The image of divine radiance suggests the sheer beauty of God that captivates the attention of God’s creatures in wonder, 爱, 和赞美. The brilliance of this light initiates a process of 运动 toward it as the Holy Spirit transforms us in the image of Christ, 世界之光. The culmination of this journey is inexpressible and unending joy as we are immersed in the divine light. By following this threefold pattern through the classic loci of Christian doctrine, this volume offers a sustained and coherent treatment of the economy of salvation from creation to consummation.

文,2008
“道格拉斯M. Koskela reflects on ecclesial reconciliation as a healing practice. With attention to both ecumenical and intra-ecclesial relationships, he examines the impetus toward and patterns of reconciliatory practice ... 他认为, by approaching reconciliation in a posture of humility and attentiveness to its own canonical riches, the church has genuine hope of restoration and revitalization."
