Professor Kainz’s short study touches upon some of the central issues at the heart of the philosophical investigation of God. ... Kainz writes movingly of the profound changes within the person once he has received the 'light of faith.' ... There is much to admire in this work. In addition to the fine essays on God and faith, there is a scriptural meditation on the divine attributes, a stirring critique of contemporary forms of idolatry, and a brief reflection on the possibility of resurrection. With its graceful mixture of wit, insight and moderation, this small volume should provide the beleaguered theist with a valuable weapon in his struggle against the new atheists.
— Review of Metaphysics
Kainz impressive list of publications on Hegel, ethics, phenomenology, and human nature attests to the expertise he brings to his enquiry. ... [T]he book covers an extensive ground of concerns from within theology, philosophy and contemporary science in the development of its analyses.
