"Insightful, challenging, and ultimately hopeful, offering a vision of the universe as sacred."--National Catholic Reporter
Ilia Delio, a scientist and theologian, is one of the most creative thinkers on the dialogue between religion and science. In these reflections written for a broad audience of those seeking new meaning and purpose in today's world, she sees the universe, itself, as the new monastery, the place to seek God. Just as in a monastery the recitation of the Hours calls to mind the work of God in our lives, so too in the new monastery we reflect on the gift of creation and the sufferings we bear.
