About
What if the cosmos itself is the first scripture?
What if evolution, mysticism, and divine love are
not separate paths but the same unfolding mystery?
In God Is Love: The Heart of All Creation, Father Thomas Keating—a Trappist monk, contemplative teacher, and spiritual rebel—invites us into a vision of God that is vast, intimate, and alive within all things. Drawing from science, interfaith dialogue, scripture, and silence itself, Keating explores the evolutionary arc of consciousness as a movement toward divine union. With warmth, wisdom, and humility, Keating speaks of God not as distant authority, but as the very ground of being present in every particle, every person, every moment. For seekers, skeptics, mystics, and meditators alike, this book offers a theology of deep time and a pathway to inner transformation. The spiritual journey, Keating reminds us, is not about escaping the world but about seeing it as it truly is: drenched in love, and longing to wake us up.
