Quick Summary:

On this final Sunday of the Season of Creation we pull out our telescopes to behold a universe unimaginably more vast and complex than our wildest imaginations, where single galaxies exist composed of a trillion stars, and where peering at them through the night sky means peering back into the expanding universe’s distant past in deep time.
Thomas Berry says “We have no functional cosmology to guide and discipline our…knowledge and skill… We really do not understand the new story of the universe or its meaning.”
In the "great emergence" (P. Tickle) that is taking place, there are new possibilities for a theology that is shaped by the larger story of the universe and a deeper understanding of the God who, in Christ Jesus, embraces and redeems all.
