Publisher's summary

Does having faith mean abandoning reason? It's easy to get that impression. Still, it seems reasonable that a supremely intelligent God would want you to use your God-given intellect on your spiritual journey as much as in any other aspect of your life.

Faith may not stand on rational thinking alone, but a solid faith should walk hand in hand with intellectual integrity.

  • Does it really matter what I believe?
  • What is the relationship between faith and knowledge?
  • Why are there so many religions?
  • Do all paths lead to the same God?

This audiobook helps you sort through the questions, objections, and concerns you can't help but raise. A Search for What Makes Sense will help you think your way clearly and honestly to answers that satisfy because they're your answers - conclusions you've arrived at personally without manipulation, coercion, or game-playing.

For faith to exist and grow it's got to make sense--good sense, carefully-thought-out sense. And chances are it does.

Finding Faith

The Finding Faith books A Search for What Makes Sense and A Search for What Is Real don't try to tell you what to believe; they are guides in learning how to believe. If you think the spiritual journey requires turning your back on honesty and intellectual integrity, these two companion volumes will speak to both your mind and your soul.

Brian McLaren is a treasure

I have loved everything I have read or listened to from this author. He is wonderful in presenting the material and his humility and humanity shines through.

This aint no Texas cookout

I finished the book and I am trying to actually think about what I gleaned from the book other than a southern twang. McLaren is a supposed postmodern guru and he has a chili cooking sounding cowboy explaining the precepts of faith. The book would be a good read for a novice in religious studies but in my opinion this is not for the seasoned vet looking to add a deeper understanding of faith. Thumbs down
