This is a lively and highly illuminating book. The editors have done an excellent job of collecting a fascinating set of essays developing theistic approaches to the meaning of life. The papers are rigorous and insightful. In considering the theistic side of things, this is a valuable contribution to the relatively recent literature in the meaning of life by analytical philosophers. Highly recommended!

This collection is a vitally important contribution to the upswing of interest amongst Anglo-American philosophers on the topic of life's meaning. As the editors correctly note, most of this recent work has denied that God (or a soul) is necessary for meaning in life. This text serves as a first-rate counterbalance, the most deep and revealing collection of supernaturalist, and particularly Christian, philosophical approaches to meaningfulness yet compiled. It includes a stellar line up of contributors addressing several new topics and often advancing fresh perspectives.
