"If you want to know how a wide and divergent array of thoughtful American understand and practice their religious faith, no other one book can tell you more than this collection of honest and often powerfully moving reflections."-Peter Steinfels, Co-director, Fordham Center on Religion and Culture and religion columnist for the "New York Times"
"This is a feast of ideas and insights, a banquet of hard-won wisdom to which you can return time and again when your heart yearns for inspiration and your intellect for illumination."-Bill Moyers
Praise for the PBS Religion & Ethics NewsWeekly show:
“Finally something intelligent on TV about religion.”—San Francisco Chronicle
“The best spot on the television landscape to take in the broad view of the spiritual dimension of American life as well as insightful glimpses of developments abroad.”—The Christian Science Monitor
In this thoughtful collection, extraordinary people who have been guests on the celebrated PBS show Religion & Ethics NewsWeekly describe how faith is possible amid the tragedy and senselessness of contemporary existence. Their insights on community, prayer, suffering, religious observance, the choice to live with or without a god, and the meanings that are gleaned from everyday life form an elegant meditation that acknowledges the desire to search for something beyond what we can see and measure.
Features over sixty contributors, including Jimmy Carter, Desmond Tutu, Studs Terkel, Madeleine L’Engle, Chris Hedges, Marilyn Robinson, Rabbi Harold Kushner, Thomas Lynch, Reverend Barbara Brown Taylor, Phyllis Tickle, Seyyed Hossein Nasr, and Dr. Francis Collins.
