Compassionate Love and Ebony Grace

Christian Altruism and People of Color

Beschreibung

Davis reviews the various approaches to compassion, love, and altruism by multiple scholars. He explores the contours of "other-love," a selfless regard for the well-being of others. Davis also examines the basis for distinctive modes of compassionate behavior enriched by "ebony grace"-a theological attribution for people of African descent.
