Four authors offer complementary insights on the nature of gratitude and its transformative role in our relationships and, ultimately, in our relationship to God. Hildebrand illuminates gratitude as value-response; Balduin Schwarz weighs giving, thanking, and receiving as an intimation of God's existence; Joseph Ratzinger draws out the place of joy in the Christian faith; and Romano Guardini asks whether Christ himself gave thanks.

Hildebrand’s insights are always luminescent, exalting. Whether he is writing about the evidential power of beauty or about value as the grounding of ethical action, Hildebrand gets to the heart of the spiritual problems that underlie all of our lives if we want to live as spiritually aware and mindful human beings rather than cogs in a machine (and this, as it turns out, is what gratitude is all about).
