“In the resurrection there is already wrapped up a judging-process, at least for believers: the raising act in their case, together with the attending change, plainly involves a pronouncement of vindication.

That is why parenthood, more than other human relationships, teaches what the theologian William F. May calls an â€œopenness to the unbidden.”

Both, however, aim toward the realization of the same image. And both deal with the depth problem.”
