Celebrating Creation: Affirming Catholicism and the Revelation of God's Glory

by Mark D. Chapman

This thought-provoking collection of reflections celebrates the glory of God as revealed in the natural universe, in our creative work within that universe, and in our humanity. The contributors include many of the leading figures associated with the Affirming Catholicism movement in the Anglican churches. Angela Tilby gives an exhilarating overview of the glory of God as revealed in creation; other contributors include David Brown (the glory of God as revealed in art), Fraser Watts (natural science), Mark Oakley (the performing arts) and Michael Hampel (drama). Kate Tristram writes about the particular contribution of the Celtic tradition to our understanding of how the divine works through the things of the created world. There are also contributions from Jeffrey John, and Brendan O'Malley.
