Christian existentialism
Christian existentialism is a philosophical movement that combines Christian faith with existentialist themes. It emphasizes individual experience, personal choice, and the search for meaning in a seemingly indifferent universe. Christian existentialists explore the tension between the freedom of human existence and the responsibility that comes with it, often focusing on how faith in God can provide purpose and direction. Key figures include Søren Kierkegaard and Gabriel Marcel, who argue that authentic existence involves embracing uncertainty and making meaningful choices, while finding hope and redemption through a relationship with the divine.
