Modern technological advances, from electron microscopes to the Hubble space telescope, have expanded our understanding of the universe beyond what was conceivable before the 1930s. A significant discovery is that everything, from subatomic particles to conscious human life, arises from an underlying, transcendent Reality that continuously brings all things from nonexistence into being. This interconnectedness suggests we view the world as a hologram, where every part reflects the Whole. The book explores the relationship between this Reality and the Christian understanding of God, presenting the concepts through a simple novel format. It begins with an accessible overview of quantum theory's development since the early twentieth century and gradually paves the way for examining how quantum mechanics relates to traditional Christian teachings. The intent is to illustrate that our typical views of God and the universe are, as theologian J.B. Phillips noted, far "too small." Insights from quantum theory reveal that Creation is more intricate, interconnected, and beautiful than our ancestors could have envisioned.
