Epilogue
Hans Boersma holds the J.I. Packer Chair of Theology at Regent
College in Vancouver, Canada. Before coming to Regent in 2005, he
taught for six years at Trinity Western University in nearby
Langley. Boersma holds a doctorate from the University of Utrecht.
His articles have appeared in numerous journals. His publications
include Violence, Hospitality, and the Cross: Reappropriating the
Atonement Tradition (Baker Academic), which won the 2005
Christianity Today
best theological book of the year award; Nouvelle Théologie and
Sacramental Ontology: A Return to Mystery (OUP, 2009); and Heavenly
Participation: The Weaving of a Sacramental Tapestry (Eerdmans,
2011).
The detailed observations about the significance of Gregorys
anagogical theology of participatory virtue are enjoyably
articulated and engage a broad cross-section of his writings.
*Grant Bayliss, Scottish Journal of Theology*
Boersma's characteristic clarity of style, breadth of scholarship,
and critical charity are on full display throughout the book, which
has much to offer the specialist and general reader alike.
*William Junker, Los Angeles Review of Books*
Boersma offers many interesting insights, based on an intimate
acquaintance with Gregory's works. ... in doing so he gives us a
salutary reminder of the distance between a fourth-century
ontological framework and our own.
*Ann Conway-Jones, Journal of Ecclesiastical History*
