Former bookseller, longtime publisher, and author Jon M. Sweeney shows—with history and anecdotes centering around books such as Thoreau's Journal, Tagore's Gitanjali, Martin Buber's Hasidic Tales, and Tolstoy's Twenty-three Tales—what it means to be carried by a book. He explores the discovery that once accompanied finding books, and books finding us. He ponders the smell of an old volume, its heft, and why bibliophiles carry them around even without reading them. He demonstrates how and why there is magic and enchantment that takes place between people and books.

But each became disillusioned by the arguments and conclusions of Dawkins, causing them to look deeper and with more objectivity at religious faith.

Much has been written about the concept of Trinity or three parts over the centuries. From simply meaning God the Father, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit to what we hear in many churches is disturbing. Debates about predestination and subordination seem to never end. Due to the great number of denominations, the definition of a Christian has suffered, watered down in a corrupt world. From the simplicity of the Bible has come a rash of new doctrines that boggles the mind. What used to be straightforward in the 1st century is now twisted and turned into many ways of thinking about the Bible.
