One of the last works dictated by Adrienne von Speyr, the present treatise offers a survey of her approach to Christianity as a whole. Nevertheless, the topic of obedience remains central for the book. In particular, Adrienne shows the inseparable connection between Christian love and Christian obedience. As Hans Urs von Balthasar writes in his foreword to the work, she teaches that “it is only when [obedience] is described as coming from love, leading to love, and intending and containing love in each of its acts that it can be explained as the Christian reality it is.”
