The “Evolution of God” will rock the core of all religions. Dramatic, powerful and questioning, humanity will be forever changed by the message from this revolutionary book. The evolution of God will expand and evolve our awareness of God beyond all borders. Exploring how the power of nature and its ability to destroy lives initiated our concept and experience of a God force, simple questions are posed so that we can comprehend how we fell into a negative and fearful relationship with a God that seemed to demand sacrifice, placation and petition. Our communication with the God Force has evolved into a stylized, ritualistic format governed over by a select few who have become the vehicles of God's messages and demands, wielding fear and punishment as weapons to insure obedience. Chris Griscom suggests that, throughout time, the shaman and priests have set in motion patterns of social and spiritual behavior that have brought about fear and separation from God. We are confronted with the distortion of beautiful teachings that have fallen into the interpretations of negative religious dogma. Ms. Griscom helps us to realize that we can find new ways of experiencing the God Force. From the crucifixion to the crusades, from stoning the religious offenders, to holy wars, from self -righteousness to ecstatic communion, the message of The Evolution of God is that the old cannot help us to know God and Godliness. This book offers new choices to assist us with our own evolution, and through our conscious awareness, allows “The Evolution of God.”
