The Math Mystic’s Guide to Creative Spirituality is unique, provocative, engaging, and a masterpiece of philosophical and mystical exploration. It offers gourmet treats for those with spiritual hunger, a feast of innovative perspectives on building social collateral (trust, forgiveness, resilience . . .), and intellectual desserts for the mathematically inclined. User-friendly for the non-mathematician, the book also provides a smorgasbord of resources for those who want to know more about the math. Deeply personal but also scholarly, with an unprecedented use of mathematical metaphors, this book will appeal to mathematicians, scientists, teachers, philosophers, religious educators, and spiritual seekers of many persuasions. A math professor before becoming a Unitarian Universalist minister, the author has compiled herein a lifetime of creative study about the relationship between math and religion. She has pioneered ways to use mathematics to help clarify such spiritual ideas as God, fairness, equality, redemption, and the nature of things. In the process she coined the terms “matheology” and “mathaphor,” introduced the notion of math sermons, and has expanded the concept of moral math. This exciting collection of essays (with a little poetry as garnish) uses math as a language to nourish the spiritual heart of our global society.

Math needs Jesus. It's a bold statement, but hear me out. Math is often seen as an abstract and impersonal subject, filled with numbers and equations that have no real-world meaning or purpose. But when we introduce faith into the equation, everything changes. Suddenly, math becomes more than just a series of calculations - it becomes a tool for uncovering the beauty and complexity of God's creation.Charity's book on the intersection of math and spirituality shows us how mathematical princi-ples can be used to reveal the deeper meanings behind our world. This unique approach to teaching math not only engages students in a new way, but it also reminds us of the importance of seeing the world through a different lens.

The Key to the Universe is a fascinating text exploring spirituality and mysticism through the eyes of Harriette Augusta Curtiss. Any readers familiar with Curtiss will be reminded of her involvement with the Order of Christian Mystics and the themes of her earlier works including: "Gems of Mysticism," and "Letters from the Teacher." This book presents a valiant combined effort between Curtiss and her husband to bring spiritual truth, as they see it, to the forefront of religious texts. To Curtiss, the suffering of the world-- a deep famine of the word of God and a distinct lack of True Believers-- is proof that the world is demanding a new, authoritative text on religious belief and practice. With this text, Curtiss aims to fill this void and provides the reader with a succinct guide to a range of mystical symbols in the world around them, including the mystical significance of numbers and shapes. She shares with the reader that during a particularly dark period, when she herself endured an episode of "soul hunger" she found guidance in symbols around her and hopes that this book will guide others who feel similarly that their lives and their spirituality are lacking in ways they cannot explain. In this book, Curtiss hopes to explore some of life's bigger questions and provide real answers with mysticism, symbolism, and a deep dedication to spirituality. The Key to the Universe is crafted with an elegance and focus unmatched in Harriette Augusta Curtiss' previous works. This text is an interesting read for anyone interested in specific symbols, numbers, and shapes, and their hidden meanings. Furthermore, this book stands out as a wonderful guide for students of mysticism and practitioners of this very distinct form of spirituality.

In 1913, Russian imperial marines stormed an Orthodox monastery at Mt. Athos, Greece, to haul off monks engaged in a dangerously heretical practice known as Name Worshipping. Exiled to remote Russian outposts, the monks and their mystical movement went underground. Ultimately, they came across Russian intellectuals who embraced Name Worshipping—and who would achieve one of the biggest mathematical breakthroughs of the twentieth century, going beyond recent French achievements. Loren Graham and Jean-Michel Kantor take us on an exciting mathematical mystery tour as they unravel a bizarre tale of political struggles, psychological crises, sexual complexities, and ethical dilemmas. At the core of this book is the contest between French and Russian mathematicians who sought new answers to one of the oldest puzzles in math: the nature of infinity. The French school chased rationalist solutions. The Russian mathematicians, notably Dmitri Egorov and Nikolai Luzin—who founded the famous Moscow School of Mathematics—were inspired by mystical insights attained during Name Worshipping. Their religious practice appears to have opened to them visions into the infinite—and led to the founding of descriptive set theory. The men and women of the leading French and Russian mathematical schools are central characters in this absorbing tale that could not be told until now. Naming Infinity is a poignant human interest story that raises provocative questions about science and religion, intuition and creativity.
