Knowing the Love of Christ - An Introduction to the Theology of St. Thomas Aquinas

Knowing the Love of Christ provides a thorough introduction to the theology of St. Thomas Aquinas in accessible language.

With enthusiasm and insight, Michael Dauphinais and Matthew Levering make available the vast theology of Thomas Aquinas. Focusing upon the Summa Theologiae, Dauphinais and Levering illumine the profoundly biblical foundations of Thomas's powerful vision of reality. Drawing upon their own experience, the authors guide readers into grappling with the fresh and penetrating insights of St. Thomas. Students at all stages of theological education will find this book an enriching introduction to the mysteries of the Christian faith.
