Reviews

"""Ilia Delio is right: we need a new framework for thinking about God and salvation in an age of quantum physics and evolution. This new model must overcome obstacles in the Church and all creation. Delio offers such an obstacle-overcoming framework: theohology. Building on insights from Jung, Teilhard, and many others, she provides a vision of the God who is the Whole of the whole, the distinct source of love but inseparable from everything that exists. This is an amazing book!""-Thomas Jay Oord, author of Open and Relational Theology ""The Not-Yet God by Ilia Delio is an important work and a major contribution to the fields of theology and depth psychology. In comparing Teilhard and Jung she reveals new aspects of both thinkers and allows us to appreciate them from new angles. This is a work which demonstrates wide reading and research in these fields, and yet the book is written in a clear and concise language, so that not only specialists but general readers can glean many insights from Delio's excellent scholarship."" -David Tacey, PhD, Emeritus Professor, La Trobe University, Australia; author The Postsecular Sacred: Jung, Soul and Meaning in an Age of Change"


"""Over ten years ago, Ilia Delio boldly asserted that evolution is the metanarrative for our age, changing even our understanding of God. Engaging the God question in this evolutionary context requires the myth of the relational whole, the story of a living God in relationship with a living earth. God is incomplete, not‐yet, and we are incomplete, not‐yet! With her unique creative literary flair, Ilia Delio draws on the relational holism of the psychoanalyst Carl Jung (whom she names as the saint) and the Jesuit scientist‐theologian Pierre Teilhard de Chardin (whom she describes a prophet) to create a new framework for thinking about God. The outcome is a highly original synthesis--spiritually inspiring and theologically ground-breaking."" --Diarmuid O'Murchu, author, Doing Theology in an Evolutionary Way ""Ilia Delio offers a brilliant and breathtaking look at the relational wholeness of God and world through the lenses of Teilhard, Jung, and contemporary science. If you're seeking faith in the future or a unitive vision that will revitalize our understanding of the participatory inter-becoming of God, humans, and world, this book is a must-read."" --Sheri D. Kling, director, Process & Faith ""From the psycho-sentient depths of matter to the heights of divine becoming, Delio's cosmotheandric entanglement of Jung and Teilhard, modern science and ancient mysticism, achieve a new relational holism for a new axial age. The theology of the future will be ""theohology""--experiential talk of the God-whole that is still coming into being."" --Andrew M. Davis, The Center for Process Studies ""Ilia Delio is right: we need a new framework for thinking about God and salvation in an age of quantum physics and evolution that overcomes obstacles in the Church and beyond.
