Product Description

▼▲

Where did the world come from? When did it begin? Where is it headed? What are we here for? What does it all mean? And what is the next evolutionary leap?

Diarmuid O'Murchu offers exciting answers -- and other intriguing questions -- in this popular synthesis of science, theology, and spirituality. As a species, humanity stands on a new evolutionary threshold. O'Murchu deconstructs old paradigms and reveals new horizons that offer vision and hope not only for the future but for the present. Like Quantum Theology, Evolutionary Faith is a groundbreaking book for our times.

Editorial Reviews

▼▲

"O'Murchu is a London-based priest and social psychologist whose previous works include Quantum Theology and Our World in Transition; his latest uses the insights of science and the convictions of environmentalism to suggest that humanity's next evolution will both unite humanity with the life of the planet and bring us closer to God. O'Murchu is, in effect, a post-Teilhardian theologian, and as Teilhard de Chardin is rather little discussed nowadays, O'Murchu's ideas may be of great interest to the spiritual seeker." - Library Journal
