This is a chapter on the nature, value, and scope of what is involved in dedications, both among persons and, ultimately, in dedicating something (or someone) to God. The relevant concepts in the philosophy of dedication are developed: the intentionality involved, the importance of sincerity, the notion of a dedicatory good, and so on. In ideal cases, a dedication honors both the donor and recipient of the dedication, and enhances the value and meaning of the object (thing, event, activity, or even the life of a person) donated. The chapter concludes with exploring what is involved in the dedication of time to the God of Christianity.
