Ilia Delio makes fascinating sense of the universe, beginning with
the story of cosmic evolution, coursing through the meaning of God
in evolution and the emergence of Christ, and concluding with new
ways of seeing Christ in all things. As Teilhard de Chardin did in
The Divine Milieu, Ilia Delio reveals the sacrament of God at work
in the world.
She also explores the spiritual evolution within each of us and
suggests that it will change the cosmos as well as the church. She
shows that we are at a stage in evolution where our choices will
determine what happens next. "Love," she writes, "always seeks the
best for the beloved but God is a beggar of love who waits at the
soul's door without daring to force it open. The question of Christ
emerging as the personal center of the universe is not a question
of yes or no but a question of how that love will evolve." She
makes one thing perfectly clear: it is happening and the evidence
is astounding.
The Emergent Christ is an antidote to the new atheism that says
there is no place in evolution for God, let alone a God of love. It
is also a spiritual tonic for Christians interested in
understanding their place and purpose in this evolving
universe.
