Abstract

This chapter focuses upon the salvific process of being ultimately drawn into intimate participation within the trinitarian life of God, which though initially begun by God, requires the active participation of the human individual with the its calling. In this process, positive psychology, though not a wholesale replacement, can be seen as a positive tool within this program of “self-transcendence” (pg. 109).
