What is the Christian response to developments in the hard sciences? What do discoveries at the macro and micro levels have to say about Christian theology, about a theology of God, Christology, pneumatology, and creation? How do the developments in systematic theology that do take the advances in cosmology and the New Sciences seriously come to bear on our worship life?
These are the questions addressed in Worship and the New Cosmology. It endeavors to bring cosmology and the New Sciences into dialogue with developments in systematic and sacramental theology. This book also suggests some ways in which these developments might appear in our worship.
Vincie’s study seeks to reduce the cognitive dissonance between ourscientifically informed everyday lives and our life of faith.
Catherine Vincie, RSHM, is professor of sacramental and liturgical theology at Aquinas Institute of Theology in St. Louis, Missouri, and past president of the North American Academy of Liturgy.
