He is fully an incarnationalist, which is our great Christian trump card. The universal incarnation always shows itself in the specific, the concrete, and the particular, and it refuses to be a mere abstraction. No one states this better than Christian Wiman: “If nature abhors a vacuum, Christ abhors a vagueness. If God is love, Christ is love for this one person, this one place, this one time-bound and time-ravaged self.”5
