Summary:"I have chosen to write a narrative theology because I am convinced that all human stories are implicitly meanty to communicate loving interpersonal and social trelationships that utimately are embraced by the value and mystery of a loving God. ... The story of God's unconditional love for us in Jesus Christ is the Christian community's norm for judging the authenticity of our own life and loves. It is the Good News of the Love that transcends every human love, given to us. ... The four Gospels are four faces of God's love in Jesus Christ manifested as costly (Mark), fraternal (Matthew), universally compassionate (Luke), and inhabiting (John)."--Introduction, pages 16-17
