    279. Soren Kierkegaard's Leap of Faith

    Christian existentialism is a Theo-philosophical movement which takes an existentialist approach to Christian theology. The school of thought is often traced back to the work of the Danish philosopher and theologian Soren Kierkegaard (1813–1855) who is widely regarded as the father of existentialism — a family of philosophical views and inquiry that explore the human individual's struggle to lead an authentic life despite the apparent absurdity or incomprehensibility of existence.
