All religions evolve, and Christianity is evolving rapidly today. Don MacGregor’s book is a lucid and thoughtful guide to this process, and shows how the essential core teachings of Christianity can be disentangled from unhelpful interpretations that stand in the way of a living Christian faith in the twenty-first century. I found this book stimulating and inspiring. It is also admirably brief and clear.
Dr Rupert Sheldrake, biologist and author of The Science Delusion and many other titles
With his deep and extensive understanding of Christianity and Perennial Wisdom teachings, Don MacGregor shares in this lucid, profound and wonderfully compassionate book that they, and indeed all major spiritual traditions, are; ‘the path of the evolution of human consciousness’. Fluent in both science and spirituality he shows how their emerging convergence is revealing universal consciousness as the fundamental nature of reality. Vitally, Christianity Expanding gifts its readers with a revitalisation of Jesus’ call to love one another and affirms that we have now reached the stage in our collective evolution when we can begin to do so on a global level.
Dr Jude Currivan, cosmologist, author of The Cosmic Hologram and co-founder of WholeWorld-View
Don MacGregor’s vision of an expanded framework of wisdom Christianity consonant with modern scientific insights is a fitting articulation for our times with its emphasis on inner transformation rather than sacrificial belief. It encourages us to live life in its fullness of love and compassion and provides a blueprint for an engaged and ecological spirituality in our journey towards wholeness and integration.
David Lorimer, Programme Director, Scientific and Medical Network
This book offers the reader a window into the perennial principles that are foundational to the Christian faith. With remarkable clarity, the author provides an insightful view of the Christian perspective, and how it must evolve to meet the spiritual needs of modern-day humanity. It is a must-read for anyone who believes that Christianity has to expand its framework to include the new discoveries arising within science, cosmology and the study of human consciousness.
William Meader, International Speaker and author of Shine Forth: The Soul’s Magical Destiny Portland, Oregon, USA
This is a really helpful and stimulating book for anyone interested in the future of the Church and Christianity. Concise, easy to read and full of helpful insights it combines a classical understanding of theology with all the new awarenesses of a contemporary holistic approach. If I had a magic wand, every clergyperson would read it, as well as every pagan and witch with space in their heart for the Christian message.
William Bloom, educator and author, director of the Spiritual Companions Trust
