Edited by Ilia Delio, thirteen scholars fulfill Teilhard de Chardin’s hope that a future generation apply his learnings to the needs of their age.
Each chapter sheds new insight on God and humankind’s role in co-creation, and the wisdom we need to forge the future. Most of all, these visionaries inspire us to do our share to advance a spiritual universe. The contributors include: John F. Haught – Edward Vacek, S.J. – Patrick H. Byrne – Francois Euve, S.J. – Ilia Delio – Denis Edwards – Kathleen Duffy, S.S.J. – Ursula King – John C. Haughey, S.J.
A landmark effort in the work of evolutionary theology, From Teilhard to Omega will be of interest to scholars, students, and seekers alike.
“Ilia Delio has challenged a team of Teilhard experts by asking them, in their fields, to envision how unfinished humanity’s convergent journey toward Omega has progressed in complexity and consciousness since Teilhard’s day. It’s a hope-filled book, exploring Teilhard’s realm of the ‘not yet,’ spilling over with fascinating and prophetic thoughts and images on things to come.” —Louis Savary, Ph.D., S.T.D., author, The New Spiritual Exercises
“A useful and much overdue contribution! These wonderfully diverse and helpful essays will open up many new access routes to a Christian mystic whose time has definitely arrived.” —The Rev. Cynthia Bourgeault, Ph.D., author, The Wisdom Jesus and The Holdy Trinity and the Law of Three
