Description
Summary:Introduction -- Emotions -- The impassible God -- The passible God -- The love of God -- The wrath of God and other moral judgments -- Divine empathy and the problem of creepy emotions -- Conclusion.
"An introductory exploration on the nature of emotions, and examination of some of the critical issues surrounding the emotional life of God as they relate to happiness, empathy, love, and moral judgments. Covering the different criteria used in the debate between impassibility and passibility, readers can begin to think about which emotions can be predicated of God and which cannot." --
