What Sustains Human Beings

Approaches to St. Paul’s Letter to the Galatians

Jesus brought God back to us as a fatherly power that we do not need to fear but in whose unconditional love we can trust. Eugen Drewermann sees St. Paul as perhaps the first person to fully grasp this message from Jesus and its actual meaning. When we believe in it, our entire existence is transformed: from the anguish of fear to the experience of being loved, from the craving for power to compassion and community. As a theologian and psychoanalyst, the author interprets St. Paul’s Letter to the Galatians as a message to rediscover ourselves as human beings and live freely, truthfully and very confidently in love.
