About this book

Could a freethinking secular humanist who is happily married to a Protestant minister have anything helpful to say to the rest of us about building community in a world divided by beliefs?

The answer is a resounding Yes, and Chris Highland has done just that in his latest book, Broken Bridges.

With true stories from his years as a chaplain in jails and shelters, he reflects on the wisdom of the "unheard" as well as insights from well-known voices like Frederick Douglass and the Dalai Lama. Broken Bridges is an invitation to wider thinking for secular people and for those who still believe.

With a sometimes pointed but never a mean-spirited or anti-religious tone, this book intentionally presents hints but not "how-to" toward repairing, rebuilding, or even replacing old structures of belief that stand in the way of true progressive reform.

Think what we could build together beyond belief!

Questions about God: Today's Philosophers Ponder the Divine
From young children, with their guileless, searching questions, to the recently bereaved, trying to make sense of tragic loss, humans wrestle with our relationship to God--and with God's essence, motivations, and power--throughout our lives: Why does God permit catastrophe and senseless tragedy, again and again? Is God's power limited in any way? Can He change the past? Does He know the future? Why does God require prayer? Why does He not provide stronger evidence of His presence? Whom does God consign to hell, and why? Does God change? Suffer? What can we make of the conflicting diversity within world religions, of the many gods of different religious traditions? <p/> Such questions engage, confront, and perplex us on a daily basis. In this rich, concise volume, leading philosophers who have long pondered God's nature and ways take on these core problems and present their findings in a manner likely to engage believer and non-believer, general reader and specialist alike.
