Matthew Fox - Naming the Unnameable: 89 Wonderful and Useful Names for God …Including the Unnameable God

Matthew Fox elegantly offers a contemplative practice that transforms the names of God to the experience of God. Deepak Chopra MD

What a magnificent symphony of sacred names! My heart is resounding with the music Matthew Fox has evoked in this celebration of the manifold attributes of a Being he gleefully admits transcends all naming. By weaving in the voices of philosophers, theologians and mystics across the spiritual tradition, Fox grounds this magnificent offering even more deeply, inviting us to participate in a space of ongoing inquiry. Mirabai Starr, author of Caravan of No Despair

Ive always experienced the Divine as expressing through everything around me: the squirrel chattering up the oak tree, the waves crashing on the shore, my baby boy looking me in the eyes. Matthew Fox in Naming the Unnameable allows us to explore all of the many and dynamic ways that God speaks and breathes and plays in the world. Jennifer Berit Listug, co-author with Matthew Fox and Skylar Wilson of Order of the Sacred Earth

This is a simple book written by a brilliant man who gives us a democratic vision of the names of God. It will be sure to appeal to readers of many faiths, scientists, and nature lovers as well. Steven Herrmann, author of Spiritual Democracy

These are not just names but 89 theories of God across the ages and the planet, each focusing on the characteristic it deems most divine. Matthew Fox leads us on a startling and beautiful journey through humanitys capacity to envision God, showing every way of looking at God is legitimate if it raises the aspirations of its adherents and their ability to carry them out. Is there objectively a God? What God even means explodes in this little book like fireworks in the mind. Nancy Abrams, author of A God That Could Be Real

Matthew Fox leads us on an important yet easily absorbable exploration of the multiplicity of forms in which we perceive the Divine in our lives. While we so readily seek to differentiate, define or even dispel the sacred, we desperately need teachers like Fox who show us the unity in diversity. I suspect that anyone can find some names in this book that resonate for them, whether scientist or artist, believer or atheist, old or young, female or male. Foxs depth of insight and abundant compassion is felt throughout the pages as he helps us embrace and share in the wholeness of who We are. Sky Nelson-Isaacs, M.Sc. Physics and author of Living in Flow

In Naming the Unnameable, Matthew Fox generously brings God down to Earth and us into contact with the Great Mystery that dances all around and within us. He brings the arch of Western Religion back home and with it, opens up a sense of the sacred for all to experience all-ways. Skylar Wilson, co-author with Matthew Fox and Jennifer Berit Listug of Order of the Sacred Earth

There is a call of profound importance echoing around the world and Matthew Fox is one of those whose empowering courage has given it real depth, resonance, and imagination. Naming the Unnameable is an invitation to deep reflection and the emergence of our true embodied humanity. It is a book of wonderment, of stillness, and it calls us home. Fox gives voice to some of the innumerable names by which we know the numinous mystery of divinity. Should we accept his invitation to courageous contemplation and the unfolding wonderment that would be sure to follow, we may indeed find our way to the global renaissance we so urgently need. Mac Macartney, author of The Invisible Path
