Is Religion Really What You Think It Is? The answer may surprise you.

Many people express a need for spiritual fulfillment but are troubled, or at best put-off, by what is often and loosely called "organized" religion. This is especially true today, when once-venerated institutions and trusted public figures have become subjects of investigation, sources of disappointment, and worse. People fear becoming victims of crime and alter their daily lives to avoid it. Terrorism committed in the name of religion and political causes painfully reminds us of how human capacities can be turned with devastating results against ourselves. At times much of the world appears to be in a state of decay, and sources of spiritual strength seem scattered and elusive.

Nathan Rutstein understands this. His new book, Seeking Faith: Is Religion Really What You Think It Is? describes his personal search for purpose and meaning in life, a search that led him to the Baha'i Faith and its distinctive perspective on the past, its reassuring understanding of the present, and its confident vision of the future.

For the author-and indeed for millions of Bahá'ís around the globe-the youngest of the world's independent religions offers a spiritual perspective on the turmoil of our times and the promise of a magnificent future for humanity. Seeking Faith takes a fresh approach to religion and spirituality, describing our fundamental need for a spiritual guide, the nature of the successful quest for spiritual truth, the spiritual reality of human beings, the oneness of humanity, and the simple but challenging purpose of life. Equipped with these understandings, we can face adversity with strength, embrace diversity, and celebrate our noble human qualities.
