Description: |
Cosmic Love begins with a look at how our view of nature has shifted, from a mysterious, divine presence to a system of material objects governed by science. Along the way, it explores feminist critiques of science and the intriguing implications of quantum theory, ultimately calling for a more holistic understanding of nature, one that engages all our senses and offers deeper insight.
The second part turns to love, especially passionate love, through the lens of Teilhard de Chardin's idea that love is the most powerful yet least understood force in the universe. Love is presented as personal and transformative, a force for union, a glimpse of the divine, and a promise for the future.
The final section re-imagines God not just as a distant Creator, but as present within creation itself. It reflects on the evolving idea of God in religion, with a focus on a God of the future and the revelation of God in Jesus Christ. The book closes with a personal reflection on the God of faith, the God who surprises, transforms, and draws all things into unity. |
