Overview

 

“Like Teilhard’s The Divine Milieu, this book must be read by all who love the world.—Kathleen Duffy, SSJ, president, American Teilhard Association

"Inspiring, challenging, provocative, comforting and exalting daily meditations from one of the modern world's most visionary spiritual masters."-James Martin, SJ, author, Learning to Pray

"This Book of Hours provides a fresh appreciation for Teilhard’s comprehensive spiritual vision that is so deeply needed in our time. We are indebted to Kathleen Deignan and Libby Osgood for their painstaking work in opening up Teilhard’s writing for daily contemplation."  Mary Evelyn Tucker, Yale Forum on Religion and Ecology, co-author, Journey of the Universe

"In this lovely book, two seasoned religious scholars have traced the vein of hope-filled prayer running throughout the writings of Teilhard de Chardin. Setting Teilhard’s prayers, reflections, and meditations in the format of liturgical hours, the editors have produced a creative, readable, and inspiring work."-John F. Haught, author of The Cosmic Vision of Teilhard de Chardin (Orbis, 2021).

"Those who have been inspired by Teilhard's theology and spirituality . . . will find much to savor in this volume."- J.Mathew Ashley, University of Notre Dame, Theological Studies

 

This Book of Hours is divided into eight days, and further subdivided into Dawn, Day, Dusk, and Dark. The first seven days follow weekly evolutionary themes and conclude with an eighth day, “Tomorrow,” to honor Teilhard’s vision of the future.
