Weak Power and Divine Providence

This chapter explores the concept of 'weak power' within the theological framework of divine providence, influenced by thinkers like Walter Benjamin. It contrasts traditional ideas of omnipotent and powerless divinity, proposing a new understanding of God as a companion who engages in creative and hospitable relationships. The chapter further connects themes of promise, love, and the Eucharist, urging communities to reflect critically on their practices of hospitality and the dynamics of their worship spaces.
