About this title

About the Author:

ROBERT FARRAR CAPON is the author of many works on theology, cooking, and family life. He lives on Shelter Island, New York.

From Library Journal:

Capon, a maverick writer who explains traditional Christian teaching with freshness and unexpected insights, uses a mixture of genres (from movie script to prose) to reveal how deeply the pursuit of health, money, and love has become a religious force shaping our lives and depriving us of deeper satisfactions. He then reveals how Christianity has become an attempt to manipulate a right relationship with transcendence and how genuine Christianity is a lot more fun--pointing, as it does, toward a God who creates in play and in love and who uses luck, suffering, and human involvement to create a wonderful, serendipitous world. Highly recommended.
