Description
This profound and timely work explores the nature of Being through the theological lens of Paul Tillich and the psychological insights of C. G. Jung.
At its heart, the book conceives Being as the creative ground of existence—an unseen but ever-present force from which the universe arises and through which it continues to evolve. From this ontological foundation, the authors delve into the mysteries of the inner world, arguing that it is far more expansive and transformative than Western thought has traditionally allowed.
Bridging theology, depth psychology, and religious naturalism, the book re-examines Christianity—and religion more broadly—not as a rigid system of dogma, but as a living, evolving expression of the human spirit’s quest for meaning. It offers a compelling vision of how spiritual insight and psychological transformation can address the social, political, and existential crises of our time.
Drawing especially on Jung’s Answer to Job, the book suggests that humanity may be undergoing a pivotal shift in consciousness—a sacred moment in history—where old beliefs give way to a deeper, more integrated spiritual understanding.
In this vision, the path to healing and renewal lies not in external systems alone, but through the profound depths of the human soul.
