Finding and Seeking

Philosophy

“Oliver O’Donovan’s Finding and Seeking is characteristically learned and well written, but it is more than this. It is a fresh reading of the gospel for our current situation. O’Donovan has penetrating insight, like Kierkegaard, into the temptations that are endemic to our culture, and he has the skill of giving acute and vivid examples, in which we recognize ourselves unexpectedly. Only when we see the disease can we start to see the remedy.”

Our Deepest Desires

Apologetics

“This book is both philosophically acute and deeply personal in its account of what makes for a good human life and how Christianity helps us understand this better. It shows how morality, the love of beauty, good human relationships, and the search for truth can all be integrated into a single picture of how to live well—and we can see the point of each of them, if we suppose that there is a good God who creates us and brings us into communion. The book illustrates the theoretical claims with an abundance of telling examples from ordinary life.”
