‘Love’s Oneing: A Book About Contemplation’ By Kerrie Hide (2022)

I heard this book may be described as “New Age” so it isn’t I think my doctrine as such but it is a refreshing read for its word choice, rhythm and flow. The author Kerrie Hide in such magical lyricism and regular beat links science and Christian concepts of creation of life on earth. That is, according to the Bible God created the world to demonstrate God’s love for all living forms including humans. Love is the key theme in scientific origins as well Kerrie writes, as love causes atoms to bind to atoms into molecules in a concept of what can be considered ‘love’! The actual wording is much more impressive than I can describe. I found it an easier read due to its delicate flow of language. I really think the world would benefit from things contemplative like this well written book.

‘Suspended God: Music and a theology of doubt’ by Maeve Louise Heaney (2022)

This book opened by eyes to the usefulness of music to fill the void that doubt plays in the minds and hearts of us who are craving the spiritual. It discusses a number of important voices in the church like Karl Rahner and St Teresa of Avila. This book actively causes my mind to crave its discussions within its pages.
