Body of God by Salie Mcfague

In Models of God, now in a second impression, Sallie McFague dealt principally with immanental models, God as mother, lover and friend of the world. Her choice was a deliberate one, an attempt to balance the heavy transcendence of the Christian dcotrine of God. However, she ended the book aware that what was needed is not only immanental models of God, but ways of thinking of God's transcendence in an immanental way. This book is the result.

Sallie McFague spent thirty years as the Carpenter Professor of Theology at Vanderbilt Divinity School. She currently serves as Distinguished Theologian in Residence at the Vancouver School of Theology in Vancouver, British Columbia. Life Abundant: Rethinking Theology and Economics for a Planet in Danger (2000), Super, Natural Christians: How We Should Love Nature 1997), The Body of God: An Ecological Theology (1993), Models of God: Theology for an Ecological, Nuclear Age (1987), which won the American Academy of Religion's Prize for Outstanding Metaphorical Theology
