Description

The Creative Suffering of the Triune God: An Evolutionary Theology by Gloria L. Schaab explores the complex relationship between suffering and the Christian concept of God. In this thought-provoking work, Schaab draws on evolutionary science and panentheistic perspectives to propose a new understanding of the triune God's involvement with the world. Schaab's argument is rooted in the idea that the triune God participates in the sufferings of the cosmos itself, offering a viable response to cosmic suffering. She develops a female procreative model of creative suffering, an ecological ethics based on the midwife model of care, and a pastoral model of threefold differentiation of suffering in God. This book provides a nuanced exploration of the intersection of theology and science, shedding new light on the nature of God and our place within the world.
