Faith Beyond Mere Belief - Sam Gould Ph D - Bog

Faith Beyond Mere Belief is the culmination of thirty years of theological study. In it, the author presents a thought provoking approach to faith that is particularly appealing to those who are not inspired by either evangelical eagerness or orthodox doctrinal creeds. While the book draws upon the work of many of the twentieth century's most noted theologians, the author presents concepts in an unpretentious style that avoids the obscure language that often puts such material beyond the interest of a non-academic audience. Personal examples enrich and clarify the text. The author insightfully intertwines scripture throughout the book to illustrate and interpret concepts within a historical Christian framework. Faith Beyond Mere Belief provides an approach to faith that is challenging, going beyond the acceptance of a set of religious beliefs to develop a basis for faith that fully integrates body, mind and spirit for service to God and humanity.
