Endorsements
In A Theology of the Microbiome, Dr. Pohl presents a spiritually enlivening approach to understanding the intricate world within our bodies. Looking through the lens of a microscope as well as that of open and relational theology, Pohl invites readers to witness the divine at work even in the minute interactions of our gut’s microbial community. His book reveals the profound connections between our physical and spiritual health, opening up yet another avenue for more fruitful dialogue between science and religion.
—Matt Segall, Ph. D., author of Physics of the World-Soul
Good theology addresses all facets of life. And when we explore the world through science, the most robust theology that emerges is affected by what science suggests. In this fascinating book, John Pohl weaves together microbiome research with a compelling vision of God. The result is truly groundbreaking!
—Thomas Jay Oord, Ph.D., author of Open and Relational Theology
“Contemporary discourse in science and religion harbors all manner of questions extending from various perspectives internal to the sciences and theology alike. Here’s one you don’t often hear: What has theology to do with the microbiome? Better yet: What has God to do with your gut? Integrating his experience as a Gastroenterologist and his study of process philosophy and theology, Pohl creatively advances a metaphysics of the microbiome, with wide-ranging implications for how we think about our place in the universe. From our gut to God and back, digesting this theology is a process, but its aim is overall health.”
—Andrew M. Davis, Ph.D., author of Metaphysics of Exo-Life
