Active Passivity: The Paradox of Divine Empowerment Aug 16, 2026 This presentation explores the concept of Active Passivity, which describes the Christian life as a paradoxical cooperation between divine power and human action. According to the text, believers are called to express externally what God is already initiating internally, rather than relying on their own strength or willpower.
