Praise for Peter Phan
“With a sure grasp of church tradition and sensitivity to new questions, Peter Phan’s work on a theology of the afterlife is lucid, engaging, and enlightening. One can always learn something more from his explanations.” – Elizabeth Johnson, C.S.J., Distinguished Professor of Theology, Fordham University
“Few scholars are better qualified to address questions of death and eternal life as Peter Phan. Though a scholar of broad interests, eschatology has been a central concern since early in his work. With a critical appreciation of the tradition, he… always brings in the best in contemporary theology.” – Thomas P. Rausch, S.J., T. Marie Chilton of Catholic Theology, Loyola Marymount University
“Professor Peter Phan is one of our very best Catholic theologians, whose insights and reflections on the Christian hope in resurrected life have inspired a generation of believers. He is a wonderful guide on a tour of these powerful and moving Catholic beliefs!” – John E. Thiel, Professor of Religious Studies, Fairfield University
