  Welcome: Books by Matthew Fox







Following are Matthew Fox’s book titles with a brief
description of each:



Creativity: Where the Divine and the Human Meet
An exploration of the most distinguishing characteristic of our species—our creativity—which expresses our deepest nobility and that from which springs our greatest evil. What are the obstacles to our creativity? How can we take our creativity back and live more fully as a result? How everyone is creative?

Prayer: A Radical Response to Life
This book explores the essence of spirituality—our meaning of prayer—and how our mystical experience (our “Yes” to Life) and our prophetic experience (our “No” to Life’s imposters such as injustice) dance together in a mature spiritual person.

Sins of the Spirit, Blessings of the Flesh: Lessons for Transforming Evil in Soul and Society
Dr. Scott Peck has said that we are still at a “primitive stage” in our language about evil. This book attempts a renaming and recontextualizing of Evil based first on healing the split between spirit and matter (the put-down of “flesh” and turning flesh into a scapegoat for evil can be healed by the new cosmology that teaches us how sacred and connected and rare flesh is in the universe) and by invoking the 7 chakras of the East along side the 7 capital sins of the West. If sin is “misdirected love,” as Aquinas defines it, then its counterpart would be off-centered charkas.
