Conclusion

Abstract

Abstract Over the course of the book, there is a transition from a more general discussion about the nature of accountability to a more theological one. This shift is not characterized by discontinuity but involves a move to give an account of the theological influences behind the book’s more general view of accountability. That is, it involves a shift from a narrow focus on the shared projects that characterize human life in this world to a wider focus on the ultimate shared project for which God creates this world. This concluding chapter offers an overview of these two foci and try to encapsulate the relationship between them.
