Deus providebit: Calvin, Schleiermacher, and Barth on the Providence of God

Following an assessment of Barths critique of the Reformed position, the author provides an extensive reading of Calvins writings, demonstrating that Calvin is far more concerned with the Christological basis and Christian meaning of providence than Barths theology recognizes; as well, Schleiermachers theological construction problematizes aspects of Barths reading. The upshot of this work is that each of these theologians provide critical safeguards and soundings that need to be heard in concert and mutual correction for a robust doctrine of divine providence.
