Partaking of God: Trinity, Evolution, and Ecology

The natural world around us is in crisis. We know it has a dynamic, evolutionary character. How might we understand this world in relationship to God?
"Partaking of God" builds on the foundations of the dynamic trinitarian theology of Athanasius. It develops into a theology of the Word as the divine Attractor and the Spirit as the Energy of Love in evolutionary emergence. Then it explores God s suffering with creatures, the humility of God in creation, church teaching on the human soul in relation to neuroscience, and grace and original sin in relationship to evolution. It culminates in a Christian theology of ecological conversion.
