A propos de ce titre

Synopsis

What does it mean to be made in the image and likeness of God? How has the world talked about God over the ages? What do the life and teachings of Jesus say about the nature of God? Do the new sciences diminish or affirm Christianitys understanding of God? Through the lens of catholicity, an awareness of our fundamental wholeness in God, Fr. Hosinski surveys our evolving understandings of God, casting light on our knowledge of the universe as revealed in physics, cosmology, and biology, particularly the theory of evolution. Here is a holistic understanding of God compatible with the implications of contemporary science that, remarkably, advances an understanding that is harmonious with the implications of Jesus own life and teachings.|What does it mean to be made in the image and likeness of God?
