Synopsis
Beatrice Bruteau is a Christian philosopher whose vision of life is an inspiration to some of the most influential thinkers of our time. In Radical Optimism, she shines new light on the deepest truth we can know about ourselves: each of us has at-one-ment with God, here and now. She helps us to understand what this really means, to know the happiness it brings, and to cultivate a contemplative consciousness. With the teachings of Jesus at its heart, Radical Optimism is both enlightening and immensely practical.

Reviews
Christian philosopher and founder of a network for contemplatives, Bruteau writes with clarity and insight about true reality and of our need to see ourselves as we are at that core, rather than looking always at ourselves on the periphery. She puts concerns for leisure or sabbath-time into the context not only of focusing on essence but also of stilling mind and body so that the type of meditation that sees the biblical stories as our own, the Annunciation as our own annunciation, may flourish. Her meditations on sin, salvation, Jesus, the communion of the saints, and the Trinity are similarly profound and relational. Highly recommended, especially for seminary and public libraries, but for academic ones as well.
