“A thoroughly amazing book. John Cressler is a genius at conveying the most complex ideas from the entire history of science using crystal-clear prose. Gateway to the Divine is a beautiful work of wisdom. Its publication is a major event of the year.” — Brian Thomas Swimme, co-author, The Story of the Noosphere
“With the precision of a scientist and the heart of a mystic, John Cressler invites us to see our world anew—to find, in the quantum waves humming beneath our smartphones and in the ancient oaks of a Georgia forest, the unmistakable signature of the Divine.” — Ilia Delio, OSF, executive director, World Institute for Science, Religion and Culture
“Splendidly readable, Cressler’s conjunction of science and spirituality brings the energy of the universe to the aid of this perilous moment.” — Catherine Keller, professor, constructive theology, Drew University
“In his magisterial guide, John Cressler takes us by the hand for a journey to the very heights of our cosmos, illumined by his mastery of the facts but inspired by his embracing vision.” — Rabbi Bradley Artson, Goldstine Distinguished Scholar, American Jewish University
“Beautifully illuminates how science’s new understanding of the relationality and interconnectedness of the evolving physical universe naturally invites humanity into a deeper spirituality.” — James Martin, SJ, author, The Jesuit Guide to (Almost) Everything
Science shines a bright light on the key attribute that can and must play in a mature spirituality: the inherent and profound relationality and interconnectedness that defines a creatively evolving and emergent universe . . . and us. This book offers an accessible introduction to the dialogue between science and spirituality, exploring how scientific understanding can deepen spiritual insight. Drawing on his background in hard sciences and Ignatian spirituality, Cressler provides a unique perspective that bridges technical knowledge with contemplative practice.
John D. Cressler is Regents Professor, Schlumberger Chair Professor in Electronics, and Ken Byers Teaching Fellow in Science and Religion at Georgia Tech. He has received a number of awards for his teaching and research.
