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.

Praise

In these deep and insightful meditations, Ilia Delio offers readers a poetic and prayerful engagement with many of the most profound theological reflections she has offered over decades of researching, teaching, and writing. This book is a gift for longtime fans and a wonderful introduction to those new to Delio’s thought.
