When religion reporter Cathleen Falsani climbed aboard Bono's tour bus, it was to interview the rock start about AIDS awareness. Instead, they plunged into a lively discussion about faith. "This is a defining moment for us," Bono said. "For the culture we live in." Spirituality clearly now plays a key role in the United States. But what is also clear is that faith is a more complex issue than snapshots of the country convey. Jesus. Buddha. Kabbalah. Angels. This may be a nation of believers but not of one belief—of many. To shape a candid picture of modern faith, Falsani sat down with an array of people who shape our culture, and in turn, our collective consciousness. She's talked about Jesus with Anne Rice; explored "Playboy theology" with Hugh Hefner; discussed evil with crusading attorney Barry Scheck, and heaven with Senator Barack Obama. Laura Esquivel, basketball star Hakeem Olajuwon, Studs Terkel, guru Iyanla Vanzant, rockers Melissa Etheridge and Annie Lennox, economist Jeffrey Sachs, Pulitzer-winning playwright John Patrick Shanley—all opened up to her. The resulting interviews, more than twenty-five in all, offer a fresh, occasionally controversial, and always illuminating look at the beliefs that shape our lives. THE GOD FACTOR is a book for the believers, the seekers, as well as the merely curious among us. Included are interviews with Sherman Alexie, Bono, Dusty Baker, Sandra Bernhard, Sandra Cisneros, Billy Corgan, Kurt Elling, Laura Esquivel, Melissa Etheridge, Jonathan Safran Foer, Mike Gerson, Seamus Heaney, Hugh Hefner, Dr. Henry Lee, Annie Lennox, David Lynch, John Mahoney, Mark Morris, Mancow Muller, Senator Barack Obama, Hakeem Olajuwon, Harold Ramis, Anne Rice, Tom Robbins, Russell Simmons, Jeffrey Sachs , Barry Scheck, John Patrick Shanley , The Reverend Al Sharpton, Studs Terkel, Iyanla Vanzant, and Elie Wiesel.

Prosperity through Living Active Faith is an eye-opener, a brainstorming, and heart calling book to every soul-seeking personal who seeks, wishes to know, and explores life challenges, empowerment, self-growth, and transformation to reach prosperity through practically living faith and implementing the private supervision of God in our lives. This book is intended for you to give you a direction, a new point of view, tools, and a road map that will be useful for your own private life. Have you ever arrived at a point in your life when you have done everything possible offered by the human mind, yet you never seem to find the peace in your heart, the balance in your life, and the love you want to experience all around you? Life seems to be a mystery you have tried to solve so many times, yet this puzzle never seems to be solved. The cry of your soul is yelling louder and louder. Some days, the hope seems to have vanished, and you cry so hard for Him to listen. This book is intended for you, the reader, to actively engage with, experience, feel, and become excited by the stories and experiences we will share about life, love, hope, prosperity, faith, and God. The stories we share in this book are intended for you to connect with, feel and find your own dialogue in your own private life with God. This book is being written from both an emotional and a believing state of mind, meaning that we have chosen life experiences that tell you about success, faith and actively engaging in faith, but, from an emotional standpoint, the feeling of the heart was involved in these experiences. The truth can be viewed in many ways once you observe it from your mind, especially if you try to rationalize everything. But there is nothing to compare to the truth the heart feels because the heart knows in a simple and clear way what the truth is. We hope these experiences touch your heart, influence and inspire, empower and strengthen you to hold onto hope, trust, and belief and to actively believe in God as a Father, a friend who is actively interested and engaged in your life, for your own success and prosperity. Join us for a once in a lifetime journey.

"Living by faith" is much more than a general Christian precept; it is the fundamental posture of believers in a world rife with suffering and injustice. In this penetrating reflection on the meaning of "justification," Oswald Bayer shows how this key religious term provides a comprehensive horizon for discussing every aspect of Christian theology, from creation to the end times. Inspired by and interacting with Martin Luther, the great Christian thinker who grappled most intensely with the concept of justification, Bayer explores anew the full range of traditional dogmatics (sin, redemption, eschatology, and others), placing otherwise complex theological terms squarely within their proper milieu -- everyday life. In the course of his discussion, Bayer touches on such deep questions as the hidden nature of God, the hope for universal justice, the problem of evil, and -- one of the book's most engaging motifs -- Job's daring lawsuit with God.

The writer of the Book of Hebrews was writing to a group of discouraged Jewish Christians. They were so discouraged they were in danger of giving up on Christianity and going back into the life and practice they had known under the Old Covenant. This being the case, the author presents arguments for remaining true to Christ and continuing on in spite of tribulations, hardships, and discouragement. The New Covenant had a greater High Priest, greater promises, a greater hope, a greater sacrifice, and was greater in scope than the Old Covenant had ever been. To remain true and steadfast in this covenant would require a strong, active faith.
