Christian spirituality & religious experience

Writing for a wide popular audience, philosopher Diogenes Allen examines the problem of human suffering and helps us to discover ""traces of God"" in the world, even as we suffer from physical pain and loss, natural disaster, and human evil. Written for beginners in the spiritual life, Traces of God describes how we can prepare ourselves for the inevitable sufferings of life. Allen explores the human pilgrimage through adversity and takes a close look at Simone Weil's studies of affliction.

Reviews for Traces of God: 25th Anniversary Edition

Diogenes Allen has done us the service of writing this book, which is at once theologically substantial and genuinely popular. --St. Luke's Journal of Theology Good Christian apologetic, written with graceful modesty, aimed at real problems of belief and conduct, and informed by a wide-ranging philosopher's mind. --Theology Today This little book is a treasure. I commend it partly for its obvious literary merit as a wonderfully effective short treatment of its subject. --Reformed Journal
