| Abstract |
In this essay I aim to illuminate the nature of Christian hope by looking at the tradition’s
answers to three philosophical questions and then comparing them to those of contemporary
secular accounts. First, What are the possible objects of hope? Next, What are the psychological
conditions a person must meet to have hope? Finally, What makes a hope rational and what
makes it good for human life? I conclude by suggesting that the role of hope in bringing about
social goods (or evils) might be reconsidered in light of challenges presented by recent secular
work on the social dimensions of hope.
