Soren Kierkegaard's influence has been felt in many areas of human thought from theology to psychology. Almost 100 of his prayers are gathered here from published works and private papers. They not only illuminate his own life of prayer, but also speak to the concerns of Christians today. The second part of the volume is a reinterpretation of the life and thought of Kierkegaard. Long regarded as primarily a poet or a philosopher, Kierkegaard is revealed as a fundamentally religious thinker whose central problem was that of becoming a Christian, of realizing personal existence. Perry D. LeFevre's analysis takes the reader to the religious centre of Kierkegaard's world.
