Description:
|
Take six ordinary people, add a quest for meaning, weave through a strong conviction, and examine the weird and wonderful stories that result. From Mennonite missionaries to paranormal investigators, from a death doula to creationists, journalist Sarah Krasnostein respectfully tells their stories of belief systems that are often startling, but always heartfelt.
Written with compassion and empathy, these six portraits of the human condition offer unique insights into our longing to make sense of life, death and everything between.

One person who was having a review of her belief systems got a lot of reflection from this beautifully written book. Everyone else would describe it as average, some didn't read it. |

An extremely well-written exploration of the power of belief ( any belief) in our very human existence. Highly recommend. |
