On account of their deliberations, these intellectuals played a key role in mediating between the Orthodox Church and modern society. Their quest for dialogue between the 'mystery of the sacred' and the 'ordinary of everyday life' remains relevant for Western societies today. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e In \u003ci\u003eGod as Love\u003c\/i\u003e Johannes Oravecz presents a comprehensive summation of twenty-five prominent Russian religious thinkers and their thought on the concept of \u003ci\u003eagape\u003c\/i\u003e, showing in detail how they broke new ground in their various affirmations of the truth that \u003ci\u003eGod is love\u003c\/i\u003e.
