Summary

Hope is faith and trust in the possibility of the not-yet which makes it worthwhile to live and be in the present. But today Western society has seemingly lost its collective hope in a better future. This book examines the nature of Christian hope, its historical and political manifestations, the philosophical accounts of the hope inherent in human nature, and its significance for our culture.
