What is Free of charge : giving and forgiving in a culture stripped of grace : the Archbishop's official 2006 Lent book about?
<p>We are at our human best when we give and forgive.<br> But we live in a world in which it makes little sense to do either one.</p> <p>In our increasingly graceless culture, where can we find the motivation to give? And how do we learn to forgive when forgiving seems counterintuitive or even futile? A deeply personal yet profoundly thoughtful book, Free of Charge explores these questions — and the further questions to which they give rise — in light of God's generosity and Christ's sacrifice for us.</p> <p>Miroslav Volf draws from popular culture as well as from a wealth of literary and theological sources, weaving his rich reflections around the sturdy frame of Paul's vision of God's grace and Martin Luther's interpretation of that vision. Blending the best of theology and spirituality, he encourages us to echo in our own lives God's generous giving and forgiving.</p> <p>A fresh examination of two practices at the heart of the Christian faith — giving and forgiving — the Archbishop of Canterbury's Lenten study book for 2006 is at the same time an introduction to Christianity. Even more, it is a compelling invitation to Christian faith as a way of life.</p> <p>'Miroslav Volf, one
