I will let you know if she has any thoughts on the book.==<br /><br />Excellent!!! Looking forward to what your friend has to say...<br /><br /><br />Grace and peace,<br /><br />DavidDavid Waltzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17966083488813749052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3771009444113723863.post-13923948134795117612012-07-01T12:32:24.120-07:002012-07-01T12:32:24.120-07:00Hi David,

I have already spent this month's book allowance (I know, I'm bad, it is only the first day [grin]), but will keep it in mind for next month.<br /><br />While engaged in a bit of online research for an upcoming post, I came across another book I do not own, but am thinking of purchasing: <i>The Systematic Thought of Hans Urs von Balthasar: an Irenaean Retrieval</i>, by Kevin Mongrain—have you read this book?<br /><br /><br />Grace and peace,<br /><br />DavidDavid Waltzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17966083488813749052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3771009444113723863.post-38955458671751563202012-06-30T12:56:00.514-07:002012-06-30T12:56:00.514-07:00Hi David,

Much of it is inspired by St. Irenaeus, chapter 2 most immediately.<br /><br />In Christ,<br />JohnIohanneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07428459561508166712noreply@blogger.com
