Unless You Become Like This Child

In one of the last books written before his death, the great theologian provides a moving and profound meditation on the theme of spiritual childhood. Somewhat startlingly, von Balthasar puts forth his conviction that the central mystery of Christianity is our transformation from world-wise, self-sufficient "adults" into abiding children of the Father of Jesus by the grace of their Spirit.Balthasar, Hans Urs Von is the author of 'Unless You Become Like This Child', published 1991 under ISBN 9780898703795 and ISBN 0898703794.
