Love Beyond Belief

Using insights from the brain science of emotions, Love Beyond Belief: Finding the Access Point to Spiritual Awareness narrates two millennia of lost-and-found stories about love beyond belief as the access point to the heart and soul of spiritual life. Many of todays spiritual but not religious people one in four US adults have found the access point to spiritual experience that Western Christianity lost: unconditional love. Love Beyond Belief tracks the history of this lost emotion. Thandeka (Ph.D., Claremont Graduate University) has written Love Beyond Belief with two goals in mind: to resolve the emotional-deficit problem in so many corpse cold (Ralph Waldo Emersons words) mainline congregations today; and to offer a primer for spiritual but not religious people to build up and network their spiritual communities.
