God is a creative process or event, according to Karl Peters. By participating with that creativity, we can learn to live in harmony with the rest of life on planet Earth, and live meaningfully in a world in which suffering and death are intertwined with life. Using insights from evolutionary biology, process theology, and the worlds faith traditions, Peters teaches us how to dance with the sacred.
Annotation:
In DANCING WITH THE SACRED, Peters maintains that God is not so much an entity as an ongoing process. Drawing upon the Darwinian theory of natural selection, he argues that readers should strive to merge with the creative act of evolution by honoring all life as sacred.
