Abstract
McDougall (Ph.D. in systematic theology from St. Michael's College) is director of the Doctor of Ministry Program at Toronto School of Theology. She has taken up Thomas Berry's challenge from The Dream of the Earth, to integrate the "New Cosmology" into Christian theology. Berry asserted science gives a coherent world view to which we must fasten our hopes if we are to survive the current ecological crisis. This world view asserts "the universe is the only self-referent mode of being" and "the fundamental revelatory experience." Berry thought Christian theology must shift emphasis from redemption to creation in order to address scientific reality. McDougall has done just this in the area of sacramental theology.
