In this brilliantly provocative, wise and enthralling book, Richard Rohr urges us towards greater understanding of the Cosmic Christ - 'the eternal union of matter and Spirit from the beginning of time'

The Trinity is supposed to be the central, foundational doctrine of our entire Christian belief system, yet we're often told that we shouldn't attempt to understand it because it is a 'mystery'. Should we presume to try to breach this mystery? If we could, how would it transform our relationship with God and renew our lives?

This companion to The Universal Christ offers 40 practical, inspiring Christian reflections on what it means to live 'in Christ'

NEW YORK TIMESBESTSELLER *;From one of the world's most influential spiritual thinkers, a long-awaited book exploring what it means that Jesus was called ';Christ,' and how this forgotten truth can restore hope and meaning to our lives.';Anyone who strives to put their faith into action will find encouragement and inspiration in the pages of this book.'Melinda GatesIn his decades as a globally recognized teacher, Richard Rohr has helped millions realize what is at stake in matters of faith and spirituality. Yet Rohr has never written on the most perennially talked about topic in Christianity: Jesus. Most know who Jesus was, but who was Christ? Is the word simply Jesus's last name? Too often, Rohr writes, our understandings have been limited by culture, religious debate, and the human tendency to put ourselves at the center.Drawing on scripture, history, and spiritual practice, Rohr articulates a transformative view of Jesus Christ as a portrait of God's constant, unfolding work in the world. ';God loves things by becoming them,' he writes, and Jesus's life was meant to declare that humanity has never been separate from Godexcept by its own negative choice. When we recover this fundamental truth, faith becomes less about proving Jesus was God, and more about learning to recognize the Creator's presence all around us, and in everyone we meet.Thought-provoking, practical, and full of deep hope and vision, The Universal Christ is a landmark book from one of our most beloved spiritual writers, and an invitation to contemplate how God liberates and loves all that is.
