Synopsis: Losing Your Faith, Finding Your Soul is for those of us who have come to the end of traditional beliefs and wonder if we have reached the end of faith as well. It is for the day when assumptions about God and the religious teachings we trusted in the past no longer apply to life. When your old beliefs die, is it possible to hold onto faith? David Robert Anderson answers this question with a resounding yes. With Anderson as friend and guide, we discover that what once seemed an ending is actually a promising beginning--an invitation into a more authentic, and very different, spiritual experience.acher, Anderson helps readers identify and come to terms with the fear, grief, and confusion that accompany a shift in our spiritual foundation. Then, drawing deeply from the literature of the spirit and the experience of fellow seekers, he identifies six life-tested passages that lead us through the changes and toward authentic renewal. The outcome--as so many have already discovered--is a richer, more mature faith, and a fresh sense of being alive in God. "After all," writes Anderson, "becoming fully alive spiritually is not only the task of a lifetime; it is the challenge and gift of every moment."From the Hardcover edition.
