Crossfire: Faith and Doubt in an Age of Certainty

Religion & Spirituality

Holloway, Richard

Christian Books & Bibles

HarperCollins, Publishers

The author explores our innate sense of the religious and the nature of belief itself, looking squarely at the beliefs by which he lives, and providing the context for a personal response to Christ. Richard Holloway has also written "The Way of the Cross".

In this book, the author examines the whole question of belief and the difficulties of those who would describe themselves as "believers" or "ex- believers". The book is not a systematic exposition of the creed but Richard Holloway helps the reader wrestle with the mysteries of faith within the Christian creed: God, the Holy Spirit, the forgiveness of sin, the Church and the sacraments, judgement and the return of Christ. This book attempts to reveal the true meaning of the creed, and is aimed at those at different stages within the spectrum of belief.

Stranger in the Wings: Affirming Faith in a God of Surprises

Society for promoting Christian knowledge

For curious readers young and old, a rich and colorful history of religion from humanity’s earliest days to our own contentious times In an era of hardening religious attitudes and explosive religious violence, this book offers a welcome antidote. Richard Holloway retells the entire history of religion—from the dawn of religious belief to the twenty-first century—with deepest respect and a keen commitment to accuracy. Writing for those with faith and those without, and especially for young readers, he encourages curiosity and tolerance, accentuates nuance and mystery, and calmly restores a sense of the value of faith. Ranging far beyond the major world religions of Judaism, Islam, Christianity, Buddhism, and Hinduism, Holloway also examines where religious belief comes from, the search for meaning throughout history, today’s fascinations with Scientology and creationism, religiously motivated violence, hostilities between religious people and secularists, and more. Holloway proves an empathic yet discerning guide to the enduring significance of faith and its power from ancient times to our own.
