Where the Pure Water Flows:
The New Story of the Universe and Christian Faith
Never losing sight of this critical moment in the history of life—scientists tell us we are living in the midst of a human-induced extinction period—author Margaret Galiardi accompanies believers as they grapple with three things:
(1) what science is now telling us about our common origin story;
(2) an understanding of Christian faith appropriate for the 21st century;
(3) the future of the life of our imperiled planet.
Skillfully and creatively weaving together
insights from scientists, theologians and poets in a fresh new way, and replete
with hard questions that arise from earlier understandings of the Christian
tradition, reviewers say readers will be guided into considering credible,
intelligent ways to move beyond theirs struggles in the faithscience dialogue
and lean into a wider world of thought and belief.
Through a series of well placed reflection experiences scattered throughout the pages of this attractive "little book," readers are challenged to acknowledge the urgency of adopting an ethic of protecting the self-revelation of God which is Earth. Margaret Ormond, OP former coordinator of Dominican Sisters International, calls this book, "A must-read for all of us who endeavor to be faithful to our calling at this moment in history."
