Faith Beyond Belief: Stories of Good People Who Left Their Church Behind - Softcover

Dear Prospective Reader,

Faith Beyond Belief: Stories of Good People Who Left Their Church Behind may not be a book for everyone. If your religion brings you needed comfort against a world filled with fear, or if the thought of questioning religious belief threatens your view of reality, you may do better to steer clear of this book. Not for the world would I want to disrupt the belief system of someone whose religion is holding their world together. Similarly, if your atheism defines your existence, you may want to avoid this book as well.

On the other hand, if you welcome a challenge that takes you past the typical believer versus non-believer divide, I invite you on a tour through the Faith Beyond Belief perspective. By way of a common human faith process that few others have ever elucidated in language this plain, I point the way beyond religious (and atheistic) righteousness, divisiveness and triumphalism toward the higher spiritual goals of inclusiveness, unity and love.

Whether you like what you read in this book, or hate it, I'll bet it presents some perspectives you have not considered before. I hope you will share your opinions - positive or negative - with others - here on Amazon or in other conversations. In my heart I feel our fractured society calling out for the need to consider these issues on a more intelligent level than what currently comes in from certain factions of our popular culture.

Thank you for your interest in Faith Beyond Belief: Stories of Good People Who Left Their Church Behind! 

Sincerely,

Margaret Placentra Johnston
