Loving to Know : Covenant Epistemology

---

Outline : Knowing is less about information and more about transformation; less about comprehension and more about being apprehended. This radical book develops the notion of covenant epistemology an innovative, biblically compatible, holistic, embodied, life-shaping epistemological vision in which all knowing takes the shape of interpersonal, covenantal relationship. Rather than knowing in order to love, we love in order to know. Meek argues that all knowing is best understood as transformative encounter. Creatively blending insights from a diverse range of conversation partners-including Michael Polanyi, Michael D. Williams, Lesslie Newbigin, Parker Palmer, John Macmurray, Martin Buber, and James Loder-Meek offers critically needed \\\"epistemological therapy\\\" in response to the pervasive and damaging presumptions that those in Western culture continue to bring to efforts to know. The book\\\'s innovative approach-an unfolding journey of discovery-through-dialogue-itself subverts standard epistemological presumptions of timeless linearity. While it offers a sustained and sophisticated philosophical argument, Loving to Know\\\'s texts and textures interweave loosely to effect therapeutic epistemic transformation in the reader.
