World Religions
Author: Gerald R McDermott
Publisher: Thomas Nelson
ISBN: 1401675530
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 145
Book Description
An essential and concise introduction to eight of the world's major religions. For the Christian, there's value in learning about different religions and unfamiliar expressions of belief. First of all, it gives us a greater understanding of the world we live in. But a study of other faiths can also deepen our own while making us more effective witnesses to those who don't share a belief in Christ. In World Religions, Gerald R. McDermott explains what you need to understand about major world religions so that you can be equipped to engage people of other faiths. McDermott offers an overview of the central beliefs of Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, Confucianism, Daoism, and Shinto. Features include: Insights from members of each religious community. Discussions of each religion's major traditions, rituals, and leaders. A glossary of important terms.

Inside World Religions
Author: Kevin O'Donnell
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780800638894
Category : Religions
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
"The living faith of millions of people in the world's most important religious traditions is portrayed here with sympathy and intelligence, in each case emphasizing key elements. Author Kevin O'Donnell does not dissect each tradition, however. Instead he looks at each faith from a more personal angle, asking what it means for a person to belong to such a faith. Covering six major traditions-Hinduism, Buddhism, Sikhism, Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, together with shorter sections on Zoroastrianism, Baha'i, Confucianism, Taoism, and Shinto - the author follows the same pattern for each." "O'Donnell asks the reader to join in a spiritual exercise, personalizing the insights of each tradition into one's own journey of faith. Illustrated throughout with full color photography, Inside World Religions invites the reader on a journey of encounter and self-discovery."--BOOK JACKET.
