A Simple, Funny, Important and Meaningful Book

This book looks at a real inner spriual conflict and the search for meaning in a way that pulls you in, is funny and, when you're done, you feel that you've spent at least one small potion of your life doing something important. I'm going to buy this for everyone on my Christmas list. You should too.

What You Always Wanted to Know About God But Were Afraid to

Margaret McGee's Stumbling Toward God is a model for integrity in the search for meaning. She asks herself the hard questions - What or who is God? How can I embrace religion without abandoning science? Why do I pray? Asking these questions launches us on an amazing journey that leads the reader into a world where daily moments such as drying wet hair or turning the compost pile lead to the divine. McGee never goes for the easy, the clichéd, the stereotypical answers, but that doesn't mean this book is dry. Stumbling Toward God is riveting reading, fun and entertaining, even while it grapples with the author's and the reader's deepest hopes and doubts. I won't tell you the conclusion McGee reaches, because I don't want to spoil your own joy of discovery.
