The Gift of Love builds upon recent scholarship and reads Augustines De Trinitate as a rational study of the limits of theological language and the possibility of knowing the Trinity because of those limits. Marions description of the gift of love offers to Augustines theology a phenomenological texture by which the trinitarian love given might be made incarnate in ones life. The Gift of Love presents a reason for hope that the signification of the Trinity that God is, while impossible for human beings is not impossible for God.
