7th Annual Summer School and International Conference
\nBeyond Secular Faith
\nThe Whole in the Fragment: Sacramental versus Contractual Logic.
\nJune 23-30\, 2019
\n"God is Love." This wager concerning the nature of God - theological in the deepest sense - is generated\, not from an idea\, but from the experience of the encounter with Jesus Christ\, the primordial "sacrament" of the Father. \; It entails not only a judgment concerning the nature of God himself but a judgment concerning the nature and meaning of reality and of our embodiment. This Love\, of which reality is a sign as Jesus is the sign of the Father\, is rightly qualified as semper maior\, a fact always greater than our ideas and predeterminations. As such\, the sign of love always breaks open our contractual logic. This year's summer school will be an attempt think within the horizon of this semper maior\, to pose the question of the human as bound up with the Love that is God himself and the world which is the concrete sign of that Love.
\nFor six years our summer school has facilitated a rich and friendly theological\, philosophical and cultural dialogue in freedom\, in the unique setting of Granada\, a breathtakingly beautiful city that lies at the historic crossroads of modernity and the Christian tradition.
