Out of the Desert

A journalist recounts his loss of faith and how a chance visit to a local church helped find new meaning in the oldest story of western civilization. It is an unapologetic look at his journey into atheism - what he calls "the desert" and how he found his way out the other side. Part memoir, part treatise, it explains how one man came to embrace Christianity as a modern mythology and see ancient scripture as the best roadmap to negotiating life in the 21st century.
