Amy writes with exquisite sensitivity to Teilhard’s mystical depth and poetic description of the human experience in the dynamic process of evolution. This is a book one can reflect on many times and never exhaust its content.
~ Ilia Delio, OSF, Villanova UniversityTeilhard de Chardin, evolutionary philosopher and devout Jesuit priest, shared his deepest thoughts through correspondence with his cousin Marguerite Teilhard-Chambon, herself a brilliant thinker, associate professor, and student of Henri Bergson. This book fashions excerpts from those letters into mystical poems and elaborates on them with contemplative and inspirational essays by the author. Author Amy Edelstein turns her creative reflection to these evolutionary spiritual passages, responding and updating them to our times. Edelstein is an inspirational author, future of education design thinker, and lifelong lover of contemplative practices. Her writing has been recognized with Nautilus, Publishers Weekly Ben Franklin, and IPPY book awards.

Amy Edelstein has created an extraordinary book that ignites a deep appreciation for Teilhard’s comprehensive vision of love. … This will bring joy and inspiration to so many seekers of Zest for Life.
~ Mary Evelyn Tucker, co-director, Yale Forum on Religion and EcologyTeilhard’s themes are very relevant to the deep questions and dilemmas facing us and our world today and Edelstein’s reflections are simply profound.
