God in Moral Experience by Paul Moser

God in Moral Experience by Paul Moser

The Apostle Paul defined the moral values of love, joy, peace, patience, and kindness as 'the fruit of God's Spirit.' Paul Moser here argues that such values are character traits of an intentional God. When directly experienced, they can serve as evidence for the reality and goodness of such a God. Moser shows how moral conscience plays a key role in presenting intentional divine action in human moral experience. He explores this insight in chapters focusing on various facets of moral experience – regarding human persons, God, and theological inquiry, among other topics. His volume enables a responsible assessment of divine reality and goodness, without reliance on controversial arguments of natural theology. Clarifying how attention to moral experience can contribute to a limited theodicy for God and evil, Moser's study also acknowledges that the reality of severe evil does not settle the issue of God's existence and goodness.

Paul K. Moser is Professor of Philosophy at Loyola University Chicago. He is the author of numerous books, most recently Paul's Gospel of Divine Self-Sacrifice: Righteous Reconciliation in Reciprocity (2022); Divine Guidance: Moral Attraction in Action (2022); and The Divine Goodness of Jesus: Impact and Response (2021).
