Fragments of the Spirit : Nature, Violence and the Renewal of Creation

The author proposes that the Spirit goes well beyond the conventional Christian understanding of the force that unites the Father and Son in the Trinity, and presents a new model of the Spirit, one that is based on the earth and is a natural force that heals the violence humans have done to nature and to one another, and forges unity among enemies and brings opposites together, overcoming the differences that define personal and community life.
