What is it to exist liturgically? Does the place of prayer matter? How does prayer ground ethics? These questions are posed and answered with exemplary rigor. Lacoste's critique of \"experience\" in theology and his profound analyses of being \"face-to-face with God\" are essential reading. Here is a major work by a theologian of remarkable subtlety and exceptional intellectual force.\" -- -Kevin Hart The University of Notre Dame","brand":"Fordham University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49406123147607,"sku":"9780823223763","price":31.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780823223763.jpg?v=1730494606","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/experience-and-the-absolute-9780823223763","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
