The Not-Yet God: The Not-Yet God: Carl Jung, Teilhard de Chardin, and the Relational Whole, Ilia Delio

By Dionel Rodriguez | November 9, 2023
Orbis Publisher, Robert Ellsberg, discusses "The Not-Yet God: The Not-Yet God: Carl Jung, Teilhard de Chardin, and the Relational Whole" with author Ilia Delio in this One On One Interview.We are a species between axial periods. Thus, our religious myths are struggling to find new connections in a global, ecological order. Delio proposes the new myth of relational holism; that is, the search for a new connection to divinity in an age of quantum physics, evolution, and pluralism. The idea of relational holism is one that is rooted in the God-world relationship, beginning with the Book of Genesis, but finds its real meaning in quantum physics and the renewed relationship between mind and matter.Get your copy of the book: https://maryknoll.link/fitCheck out more One On One podcasts - with Orbis Books ( https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL_I9zTQkaIOvdWF_dm6kbINWCZ-fkjpXt )#OrbisBooks #IliaDelio #RobertEllsberg #RelationalHolism #QuantumPhysics #Evolution #Pluralism #GodWorldRelationship #BookOfGenesis #MindAndMatter #OneOnOne #Podcast #Spirituality

By Dionel Rodriguez | September 29, 2023
In this episode of Among The People, we are excited to welcome the newly ordained Maryknoll Brother, Br. Ryan Thibert. Although Br. Ryan recently took his permanent oath to a life of service with the Maryknoll Fathers and Brothers, he has already had a substantial amount of experience as a missioner. With life changing experiences situations in Jamaica and Bolivia, Br. Ryan learned early in his mission experience that 'being present' for those most in need has helped not only those he serves, but also himself during the most difficult times in mission.  About Br.
