Summary:
Faith is not something we must receive from a religion, nor is it a quality we must abandon in order to become rational. "Faith," writes bestselling author Roger Housden, "implies a basic trust in the way life weaves its patterns -- an awareness that is not passive or fatalistic, but actively engaged with and accepting all of life's twists and turns." At a time when more and more people self-identify as "spiritual but not religious," the author offers us a way to recognize and embrace the extraordinary mystery of our lives without resorting to dogmatic beliefs. He invites us to investigate faith and belief. How the unattainable desire for certainty has come to replace our true understanding of faith. Becoming your own spiritual authority. Guidance for building a personal faith based on your own inner experience. How we can integrate a regular spiritual practice into our lives without subscribing to a particular tradition.
