The Coming of the Cosmic Christ

In The Coming of the Cosmic Christ , Matthew Fox addresses mysticism as an essential part of spirituality and Christian faith. “In what may be considered the most comprehensive outline of the Christian paradigm shift of our Age, Matthew Fox eloquently foreshadows the manner in which the spirit of Christ resurrects in terms of the return to an earth-based mysticism, the expression of creativity, mystical sexuality, the respect due the young, the rebirth of effective forms of worship—all of these mirroring the ongoing blessings of Mother Earth and the recovery of eros, the feminine aspect of the Divine.” Bishop John Spong. We will explore and discuss some of the rich teachings and ideas in The Coming of the Cosmic Christ.
