The authoraEUR(tm)s personal narrative addresses a truth which many people would rather ignore: the crisis of our time is a hunger for purpose and meaning. Self-help methods, worldly desires, and materialistic goals did little to satisfy his soul. Something important was missing. After years of spiritual wandering the frustration and futility of it all finally put Michael on a new course. Only after admitting he needed a drastic change in life would deeper insight be revealed. And so began a steadfast search for greater spiritual blessings. Through comparisons of various religious claims and exploration of many other subjects and disciplines, an open-minded zeal for understanding was balanced with hope and prayer. Answers to lifeaEUR(tm)s most serious and enduring questions can be elusive. And the process of transformation rarely affords shortcuts or conveniences. Yet MichaelaEUR(tm)s life had seldom been easy. Raised in a hostile environment of alcoholism and domestic violence his teenage years were marked by rebellion, excess, and frequent fighting. As a young adult, he tried to find his way by singing in a rock band and training in martial arts. The next twenty years would be a path filled with twists and turns and tragedy as required for shaping the sincerity of his heart. But a battle of conflicting forces never endsaEUR"until one side surrenders. Happy to Be Content pulls no punches. It is sometimes blunt and always honest. The pages vividly portray one manaEUR(tm)s very real, human struggle in mistakenly thinking peace could be found in prosperity. Although the tribulations helped reveal the errors of his old ways; there were new questions. Should he return to the church of his youth? Or could something like Zen-meditation, psychology, New Age Spirituality, or Buddhism help show the way? What emerged was a well-reasoned and inspirational guidebook. This exposition of love, hope, and meaning is sprinkled with shades of humor while maintaining philosophical clarity and a firm foundation in theology. Flowing with rhythm and style, the pages travel along the road where human need and desire encounter divine truth and GodaEUR(tm)s grace. All those sincerely seeking purpose, passion, and peace may likely behold an eternal treasure.

Daniel Migliore's Faith Seeking Understanding has been a standard introduction to Christian theology for more than a decade. The book's presentation of traditional doctrine in freshly contemporary ways, its concern to hear and critically engage new voices in theology, and its creative and accessible style have kept it one of the most stimulating, balanced, and readable guides to theology available. This second edition of Faith Seeking Understanding features improvements from cover to cover. Besides updating and expanding the entire text of the book, Migliore has added two completely new chapters. The first, "Confessing Jesus Christ in Context," explores the unique contributions to Christian theology made by recent theologians working in the African American, Asian American, Latin American, Hispanic, feminist, womanist, and mujerista traditions. The second new chapter, "The Finality of Jesus Christ and Religious Pluralism," addresses the growing interest in the relationship of Christianity to other religions and their adherents. Migliore's three delightful theological dialogues are followed by a new appendix, an extensive glossary of theological terms, making the book even more useful to students seeking to understand the history, themes, and challenges of Christian belief.

"Faith Seeking Understanding promotes the idea that one can approach an understanding of God through the study of science. Religious faith and scientific inquiry should not be seen as competitors diametrically opposed to each other but as complementary ways to assist the human quest for knowledge and deeper meaning of existence. Science is viewed primarily as a gift from God." "The author, with his background in both science and theology, provides the reader with an understanding of human participation in God's creation. John Shackleford explores the scientific evidence for a personal, loving God in a positive dialogue between Christian faith and science that will be thought-provoking for college and university students, along with those interested in how science and religious faith intersect."--BOOK JACKET.

Martin Luther's "The Freedom of a Christian" stands as one of the crucial writings that fueled the 16th century reformation of the Christian church. In it, Luther argues that Christians are freed from the demands of the law to serve God and neighbor. "A Christian," Luther writes, "is a perfectly free lord of all, subject to none. A Christian is a perfectly dutiful servant of all, subject to all."
