Why Faith mattersGod and the new atheism

David J. Wolpe

A prominent rabbi blends the powerful personal story of his faith struggles during a fight to defeat cancer with a poignant response to the new atheists

Judging by today’s bestseller lists, you’d think that religion is either irrational or extreme. what’s missing between the atheists and the fanatics is a genuine debate; some-one to point out that religion does have value in the modern world. Why Faith Matters is just such an articu-late, nondenominational defense of established religion in america. Rabbi wolpe presents the case for religion and proposes solutions toward engaging religion in discussions of modernity. By refuting the cold reason of the athe-ists with a vision of religion informed by faith, love, and understanding, wolpe follows in a literary tradition that stretches from Cardinal newman to C. s. Lewis to thomas merton—all individuals of faith who brought religion and culture together in their own works.

wolpe takes readers through the origins and nature of religion; popular misunderstandings of the relationship between religion, violence, and progress; the place of the Bible in modern life; and the compatibility of religion and science. he concludes with a powerful argument against calls for the end of religion.

David J . Wolpe is a senior rabbi at the sinai temple of Los angeles, and a teacher at UCLa. Rabbi wolpe writes for many publications, including New York Jewish Week, the Jerusalem Post, Los Angeles Times, and many other leading media outlets. Rabbi wolpe

has appeared as a commentator on Cnn and CBS This Morning. he is the author of six previous books, including the national bestseller Making Loss Matter: Creating Meaning in Difficult Times. Rabbi wolpe lives in Los angeles.

the Churchthe evoLUtion of CathoLiCism

Richard P. McBrien

A sweeping history of the evolution of the roman Catholic Church’s influence and power in a changing world by the AbC news Vatican expert

Where did the idea of the Pope’s infallibility come from? why are priests celibate and women barred from the priesthood? What inspired the Inquisition? What was the position of the Catholic Church on hitler’s policies in World War II, and what is its current relationship to Islam? Will Pope Benedict XVI entrench the Church in tradition, or will the growth of the Church in south america, africa, and Asia shape its future?

Renowned scholar Richard mcBrien answers these questions by helping the reader understand the history of how the Catholic Church views itself, its leadership, and its relationship to national governments and world reli-gions. From Jesus’s apostle Peter to Pope Benedict XVI, The Church explains in layman’s terms the evolution of the Roman Catholic Church, its power, its scope, its theology, its influence, and its leadership.

R i c h a r d P . M c B r i e n is the Crowley-o’Brien-walter Professor of Theology at the University of Notre Dame. A leading authority on Catholicism, he is the bestselling author of Catholicism, Lives of the Popes, and Lives of the Saints, as well as the general editor of the Encyclopedia of Catholicism. Currently a consultant for aBC news, mcBrien offers regular commentary on all the major television networks. mcBrien is also a prize- winning syndicated columnist in the Catholic press.

the grand inquisitor’s manuala histoRY of teRRoR in the name of God

Jonathan Kirsch

A provocative popular history of the inquisition and the ways in which it has served as the chief model for torture in the West to this day

The 12th century gave birth to a sinister brand of sanc-tioned terror, an international network of secret police and courts whose sworn duty was to search out anyone and everyone regarded as an enemy. the agents of the Inquisition were deputized by the church or state, and their worst excesses were excused as the pardonable sins of soldiers engaged in the war against heresy—a rational-ization used by every despot since the inception of these blueprints for authorized terror.

The Inquisition has been draped in myth and mystery throughout its 600 years of its active operations. But when we pull aside the veil, what we see are the original blue-prints for the machinery of persecution that was invented in the high middle ages and applied to human flesh ever since.

Jonathan Kirsch is the author of ten books, including the national bestseller The Harlot by the Side of the Road: Forbidden Tales of the Bible, and his most recent work, the Los Angeles Times bestseller A History of the End of the World. Kirsch is a member of the

national Book Critics Circle and a three-time past president of PEN Center USA West. He lives in Los Angeles.

the garden of truthTHE VISION AND PROMISE OF SUFISM, isLam’s mYstiCaL tRadition

seyyed hossein nasr

An exploration of the little-known third type of islam by one of the world’s most respected muslim intellectuals

the headlines are filled with the politics of islam, but Sufism is the poetry and romance of the world’s fastest-growing religion. this mystical movement from the early ninth century rejects worship motivated by the desire for heavenly reward or the fear of punishment, insisting rather on the love of God as the sole valid form of adoration. Sufism has made significant contributions to Islamic civi-lization—for instance, the Sufi poet Rumi is the bestselling poet in America. But in recent centuries Sufism has been a target for conservative islamic movements. nasr, the pre-eminent Sufi scholar in the United States, here presents the beliefs and vision of the mystical heart of islam, along with a history of Sufi saints and schools of thought.

Professor Seyyed Hossein Nasr , one of the world’s lead-ing experts on islamic science and spirituality, is University Professor of Islamic Studies at George Washington University. He is the author of more than 50 other books, including Heart of Islam and Islam. he has been a guest expert on many national news shows and is a well-known and highly respected intellectual figure both in the West and the Islamic world. Born in Tehran, raised in the United states, and a graduate of mit and harvard, nasr is well placed to explain islam to a western audience. he lives in washington, dC.

the book of DestinyUnLoCKinG the seCRets of the anCient MAYANS AND THE PROPHECY OF 2012

Carlos Barrios

The Celestine Prophecy meets The Four Agreements as a contemporary mayan priest and shaman reveals the genius of the ancient mayan calendar and its relevance for today

The year 2012 marks the end of the Mayan calendar—the date that indicates the beginning of the Prophecy of the sun and denotes the dramatic transition from one major phase of our world into another. many read this as the date of the apocalypse; most agree that the date corre-sponds to events such as global warming and the threat of wars around the world. this book helps clarify just what the 2012 date means to us, what the Mayans believe is likely to occur, and how we can all best prepare ourselves to meet the coming change the mayans believe has long been written in the destiny of our planet.

at the heart of The Book of Destiny is the sacred mayan calendar, an extraordinary tool recognized today for its unique ability to predict events. According to the Mayan elders, at the moment of birth every human being is given a destiny. this book allows the reader to discover this destiny, along with one’s special mayan symbol and the protection spirits that accompany them through life.

Carlos Barrios is a renowned anthro- pologist and authority on mayan history, culture, astrology and the predictions of the mayan calendar. Born into one of the most ancient and sacred mayan lineages, Barrios is a mayan priest and shaman and a member of the Guatemalan mayan elders Council. he lives in Guatemala.

the scandalous gospel of Jesuswhat’s so Good aBoUt THE GOOD NEWS?

Peter J. gomes

“What did Jesus preach?” asks esteemed Harvard pas-tor Peter J. Gomes, who believes that excessive focus on the Bible and doctrines about Jesus have led the Chris-tian church astray. to recover the transformative power of the gospel—“the good news”—Gomes says we must go beyond the Bible and rediscover how to live out Jesus’s original revolutionary message of hope. With eloquence and insight, using examples from ancient times as well as modern pop culture, Gomes shows us why the good news is every bit as relevant today as it was when first preached.

beloved Disciplethe misUndeRstood LeGaCY of maRY maGdaLene, the woman CLosest to JesUs

Robin griffith-Jones

A revealing new look at the woman closest to Jesus, restoring her role as a model for Christian spirituality

Was Mary Magdalene married to Jesus? Was she a leader of the early church, despite the opposition of the patri-archal Simon Peter? In his new book, renowned scholar Robin Griffith-Jones brings Mary Magdalene back to star-tling, fascinating life. he addresses honestly and openly the questions about Mary and Jesus that have stirred such passionate debate, exploring the roles and power of men and women in the early churches and following mary’s reputation and influence into the middle ages, Renais-sance, and our own time.

illustrated with some of the most beautiful images of this enigmatic figure ever produced, this book puts the tantalizing fragments of information we have of mary back into their original context: the vital stories in which mary plays a part. Beloved Disciple shows us both mary herself, and through the lens of her life offers a fresh perspective of the new testament gospels and the Gnostic stories as we have never seen them before.

Robin Griff ith-Jones taught new testament for several years at oxford University. he is now master of the temple Church in London, one of the most important positions in the anglican Church. he is the author of The Four Witnesses (on the gospels) and The Gospel According to Paul, as well as The Da Vinci Code and the Secrets of the Temple. he lives in London.

Jesus Freaksa tRUe stoRY of mURdeR and madness on the evanGeLiCaL edGe

Don lattin

in the tradition of Jon Krakauer’s Under the Banner of Heaven, Jesus Freaks is the story of a January 2005 murder/suicide that sheds new light on the Children of God/Family international, one of the most controversial religious movements to emerge from the spiritual turmoil of the 1960s and 1970s. It is the story of Ricky “Davidito” Rodriguez, a child born into the inner sanctum of the Children of God, a cult that sent thousands on a long, strange trip into the messianic fantasy of leader david “Moses” Berg and spawned a second generation that still struggles with that legacy.

sexually abused as a child, Ricky ultimately returned to murder one of the family’s leaders and commit suicide. he has become a martyr for thousands of other “Jesus babies” brought into this world in the 1970s and 1980s.

Don Lattin is an award-winning journalist and one of the nation’s leading reporters covering alternative and mainstream religious movements and figures in America. Over the past three decades, he has covered Peoples Temple leader Jim Jones, Branch davidian prophet david Koresh, and heaven’s Gate founder marshall herff applewhite. he has also written exten-sively about the rise of the Christian right in the United states and the emergence of radical islamists around the world.

Heroic ConservatismWHY REPUBLICANS NEED TO EMBRACE AMERICA’S IDEALS (AND WHY THEY deseRve to faiL if theY don’t)

Michael J. gerson

the Washington Post and Newsweek columnist and influential speechwriter offers a blueprint for the future

michael Gerson, who penned most of George w. Bush’s inspiring speeches, is considered by many democrats and Republicans to be the most influential white house speechwriter since the Kennedy administration’s ted sorensen. Known around the administration as the “moral compass,” Gerson was more than a speechwriter; he was also a trusted insider helping to make policy decisions.

in Heroic Conservatism, he uses his own experiences in the upper tier of the Bush white house to argue that america needs a conservatism that is heroic in its aspirations, includ-ing such “compassionate conservative” social strategies as continued international aids funding, antipoverty initia-tives, and a government leadership rooted in moral values.

Michael J . Gerson is a senior fellow at the Council on foreign Relations, a regular contributor to Newsweek, and will be a syn-dicated columnist for the Washington Post next year. Besides his distinguished career as a speechwriter (President George Bush,

presidential candidate senator Bob dole, and senator dan Coats), Gerson is also former senior editor for U.S. News & World Report. he lives in alexandria, va.

you Are HereTHE SURPRISING LINK BETWEEN what we do and what that does TO THE PLANET

thomas M. Kostigen

A leading environmental journalist travels to the most fragile places on earth to show how what we do at home affects people, places, and things across the globe

in this groundbreaking work, tom Kostigen articulates the vital missing link in the environmental crisis: how we as individuals are connected to the most tenuous geography on the planet. the flick of a light switch is linked to the polar ice caps melting. the sunday newspaper is funda-mentally connected to the disappearing rainforests. By changing small actions, we have the power to alter the landscape in the battle to save the planet.

in this provocative tour of the globe in crisis, Kostigen takes us face-to-face with the ramifications of environ-mental impropriety. from a waste area twice the size of Texas in the middle of the Pacific Ocean to the world’s biggest landfill site in staten island, new York, to the rainforests of the amazon, You Are Here combines ground-breaking research and page-turning frontline journalism to present the earth from a new environmental perspective—and in so doing sheds light about our place in it.

• The Green Book has more than 120,000 copies in print.

the spiritual braina neURosCientist’s Case foR the EXISTENCE OF THE SOUL

Mario Beauregard and Denyse o’leary

Challenging books such as richard Dawkins’s The God Delusion and Christopher Hitchens’s God Is Not Great, a neuroscientist offers compelling evidence that religious experiences have a supernatural source

do religious experiences come from God, or are they just the random firing of neurons in the brain? Drawing on brain research with Carmelite nuns that has attracted major media attention as well as provocative new research in near-death experiences, The Spiritual Brain proves that gen-uine, life-changing spiritual events can be documented. the author makes a convincing case for what many in science are loath to consider—that it is God who creates our spiritual experiences, not the brain. Challenging the conclusions of such books as Richard dawkins’s The God Delusion and daniel dennett’s Breaking the Spell, this book will be of interest to readers on both sides of a hot-button issue at the intersection of science and faith.

Mario Beauregard ’s work at the University of montreal on the effects of consciousness and volition on the emotional brain and the neurobiology of the mystical experience has received international media coverage. dr. Beauregard was selected by the World Media Net to be one of the “One Hundred Pioneers of the Twenty-first Century.”

Denyse O’Leary is a toronto-based freelance journalist who specializes in faith and science issues and who frequently writes for the Toronto Star, the Globe & Mail, Christian Week, and Christian Life.

Beauregard would be the first to note that, while his work doesn’t ipso facto prove the existence of God, it does lend

scientific credence to the existence of a higher or universal consciousness.— B o o K l i s t ( s t a R R e D R e V i e W )

My Jesus YearA RAbbi’s son WAndeRs the bible belt in seARch of fAith

Benyamin cohen

A humorous, inspirational exploration of Evangelical Christianity from the Orthodox son of a rabbi in America’s Bible belt

in the tradition of Michael Wex’s Born to Kvetch, A. J. Jacob’s The Year of Living Biblically, and shalom Auslander’s Foreskin’s Lament comes a book by a talented young author that is part memoir, part spiritual quest, and part anthro-pologist’s mission. ben cohen is the Atlanta-born son of an orthodox rabbi who wants to reinvigorate his own flagging enthusiasm for orthodox Judaism and under-stand why christians are so excited about christianity. Among many adventures, he jumps into the mosh-pit at a christian rock concert, sees himself on the Jumbotron of a black baptist service, takes a bicycle trip with a young Mormon missionary, goes to a christian “professional” wrestling meet, and attends Jay bakker’s (son of Jim and tammy faye) punk ministry “Revolution,” which meets in a nightclub. to cohen’s surprise, his search for universal answers and truths in the bible belt actually makes him a better Jew.

Ben Cohen is an Atlanta-born orthodox Jew and the editor of the award-winning national magazine American Jewish Life. he is also the founder of the online magazine Jewsweek. he lives in Atlanta.

the Dark sacramenttRUe stoRies of modeRn-daY demon POSSESSION AND EXORCISM

David M. Kiely and Christina McKenna

The Dark Sacrament recounts 10 true stories of contem-porary cases of demon possession, haunted houses, and exorcism. The book profiles two active exorcists, Canon william Lendrum and father ignatius, who reveal their fears, failings, and victories as they reflect on their 40 years of service battling the devil and his minions. the authors strike just the right balance by serving as trust-worthy, credible guides on this journey into the bizarre while delivering a suspense-filled, page-turning read. thoroughly researched and impressively wide-ranging, The Dark Sacrament contains an appendix with detailed histori-cal analysis, translated prayers of exorcism, and fascinating notes on important terms and practices.

David M. Kiely ’s long career as a freelance writer has included biographies, short stories, crime novels, mysteries, and several works of nonfiction. When his spouse and coauthor, Christina McKenna , was 11, a paranormal “visitor” tormented her home for six weeks. only through the intervention of an exorcist could the spirit be expelled. Christina would later recall this episode in a memoir, My Mother Wore a Yellow Dress. the authors live in Rostrevor, northern ireland.

antony flewwith Roy abraham Varghese

the true founder of modern atheism, who once debated C. s. Lewis at his socratic Club, has now joined the other side. There Is a God reveals for the first time the scientific discov-eries and philosophical arguments that turned renowned philosopher antony flew from a staunch atheist into a believer. with refreshing openness and an absence of the anger and hostility that have been hallmarks of the new atheism, flew shows how his commitment to following the argument wherever it leads resulted, to his own astonishment, in his conversion to belief in a creator God. There Is a God will forever change the debate about the existence of God.

Antony Flew is a renowned philosopher who was arguably the world’s best-known atheist before his 2004 announcement that he now accepts the existence of God. flew published more than 30 books, many of them attacking a belief in God, and debated a wide range of religious believers. Before his retire-ment, flew was a lecturer in philosophy at oxford and at the University of aberdeen. he lives in Reading, england.

Randy owen

From the lead singer/songwriter of Alabama—the biggest country music group of all time—comes an inspiring memoir of faith, family, and living the American dream

Randy owen is the face of alabama, the biggest coun-try music group of all time. for legions of country music fans, he is a household name. Alabama has had 42 #1 hit singles and has sold more than 73 million records world-wide—more album sales in the U.s. than eric Clapton or Bob dylan.

Randy Owen is the only son of devout Christians who were poor alabama share-croppers. his band alabama signed a record- ing contract with RCA Records in 1980, launching a career that to date has resulted in 42 #1 singles and more than 73 million records sold. alabama has received more

than 150 industry awards, including eight Country Music Associ- ation honors for “Entertainer of the Year”, two Grammys, two People’s Choice Awards, and their very own star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. In November 2005, Randy and his band-mates received country music’s highest honor: induction into the Country music hall of fame.

salem Witch JudgeTHE LIFE AND REPENTANCE OF samUeL sewaLL

eve laPlante

“Hauntingly timely . . . reminds us how quickly the conventional wisdom can shift, forcing even the powerful to move.”

—New york Times Book Review

In 1692, Samuel Sewall sent 20 people to their deaths on trumped-up witchcraft charges. But the judge’s story didn’t end there. sewall went on to repent of that act and become the author of America’s first antislavery tract. In a revolutionary essay, he portrayed native americans as virtuous inheritors of the grace of God and personally paid for several young indian men to attend harvard. and finally, he published an essay affirming the fundamental equality of the sexes—a shocking position to take at the time. Salem Witch Judge opens a window into daily life in Colonial america and offers a fascinating portrait of a courageous man whose ideas were ahead of the times.

Eve LaPlante , a direct descendant of samuel sewall, has written for the Atlantic Monthly, the New York Times, Ladies’ Home Journal, Gourmet, and Boston. her previous books, Seized and American Jezebel (a biography of Anne Hutchinson, who is also LaPlante’s ancestor), were published to critical acclaim. she lives with her husband and four children in massachusetts on land originally owned by sewall.

the lost History of Christianitythe thoUsand-YeaR GoLden aGe of the ChURCh in the middLe east, afRiCa, and asia

Philip Jenkins

the surprising story of how Christianity flourished in China, india, the middle east, and Africa for 1,000 years, shaping Christianity—and islam—as they are today.

The Lost History of Christianity will change how we under-stand Christian and world history. Leading religion scholar Philip Jenkins reveals a vast Christian world to the east of the Roman empire and how the earliest, most influen-tial churches of the east—those that had the closest link to Jesus and the early church—died. in this paradigm- shifting book Jenkins recovers a lost history, showing how the center of Christianity for centuries used to be the middle east, asia, and africa, extending as far as China.

without this lost history, we can’t understand islam or the Middle East, especially Iran, Iraq, and Syria. Complete with maps, statistics, and fascinating stories and characters that no one in the media or the general public has ever heard of, The Lost History of Christianity will immerse the reader in a lost world that was once the heart of Christianity.

Christianity’s Dangerous ideaTHE PROTESTANT REVOLUTION— A HISTORY FROM THE SIXTEENTH CENTURY to the twentY-fiRst

alister Mcgrath

this is the first book to define the core idea that lies at the heart of Protestantism, along with the religious and cultural dynamic that this “dangerous idea” creates. In the Protestant tradition, all individuals have direct access to God without the mediation of priests or institutions. Protestantism and its major personalities have shaped the world we live in today, and in this book, mcGrath brings them to life.

Alister McGrath is a Christian theologian born in Belfast, northern ireland, and currently enjoys the title of distinction Professor of His-torical theology granted by the University of oxford. he is the author of several books on theology and history, including The Twilight of

Atheism: The Rise and Fall of Disbelief in the Modern World and Christian Theology. he lives in oxford, england, and travels fre-quently to the United States.

Discovering godthe oRiGins of the GReat ReLiGions and the evoLUtion of BeLief

Rodney stark

Charting the rise of religion from stone age spirituality to the recent explosive growth of Christianity in africa, asia, and south america, Discovering God asks the age-old ques-tion: if God was present from the beginning of time, why did God wait to reveal himself to humans through moses, the Buddha, Jesus, Muhammad, and so on? And why did a variety of world religions all spring up at about the same time in the era known as the Axial Age (800 b.c.e. to 200 b.c.e.)? Furthermore, why do so many religions share simi-lar features? Stark answers these questions, arguing that God was here all along, and that humankind discovered (rather than invented) God as we evolved intellectually and spiritually.

Rodney Stark is University Professor of the Social Sciences at Baylor University and is the author of 26 books, including Cities of God and The Rise of Christianity. stark’s For the Glory of God won the 2004 Award of Merit for history/biography from Christianity Today.

the Pilgrimage$13.95/$14.95 Can.978-0-06-251279-6 (pb)

the Pilgrimage has a very important place in Paulo Coelho’s work, not just because it is the first of his major books, after which came the alchemist, but because of the complete way in which it expresses the humanity of Paulo’s philosophy and the depth of his search. in this personal and contemporary quest for ancient wisdom, Paulo is transformed for ever as he learns to understand the nature of truth through the simplicity of life: he learns that “the extraordinary is always found in the way of the common people.” Part adventure story, part guide to self-discovery, this compelling tale delivers the perfect combination of magic and insight. our new Plus edition will for the first time provide a personal and behind-the-scenes look at this extraordinary journey.

MondaySome nights stay up till dawn / as the moon

sometimes does for the sun. / Be a full bucket pulled up the dark way / of a well, then

lifted out into the light. Quote from: THE ESSENTIAL RUMI, by Coleman Barks“Tuesday

”It doesn’t interest me what you do for a living.

I want to know what you ache for, and if you dare to dream of meeting your heart’s longing. / It doesn’t interest me how old you are. I want to know if you will risk looking like a fool for love,

for your dream, for the adventure of being alive.Quote from: THE INVITATION, by Oriah

”“ Wednesday

Our task is to strike a balance, to find a middle way, to learn not to overstretch ourselves with extraneous activities and preoccupations, but to simplify our lives more and more.

The key to finding a happy balance in modern lives is simplicity.

”An open heart is alive to wonder, to the sheer

marvel of ‘isness.’ It is remarkable that the world is, that we are here, that we can experience it. The world is not ordinary. Indeed what is remarkable is

that it could ever look ordinary to us. Quote from: THE HEART OF CHRISTIANITY, by Marcus J. Borg

Most important of all is the spiritual power of hope, which may be the only thing that can finally overcome our too characteristic cynicism.
