Project Conversion: One Man, 12 Faiths, One Year
"There are many paths to God--we all know that, right? But how many of us really, truly believe it? In this extraordinary journey, Andrew Bowen makes the case in a profound, moving, and compelling way, with deep humility and insight. Read this book and you will never think of another human being as an incomprehensible 'other' ever again."--Imran Ahmad, author ofThe Perfect Gentleman: A Muslim Boy Meets the West"Andrew Bowen was a monthly guest on Interfaith Voices in 2011, sharing his experiences with 12 different faith traditions. One could hear in his voice the struggles and triumphs he experienced as he honestly sought to enter deeply into each religious tradition, understand it and live it.Now, he has put these experiences into a well-written book where he shares his year-long experience with the same openness and honesty he displayed on radio."--Maureen Fiedler, Host of NPR'sInterfaith Voices Radio"Andrew Bowen takes readers on a spiritual journey that lays it all on the line...he ended up each month reflecting in his thoughts and deeds not just one faith's teachings but all those that preceded it. And in so doing, he vividly demonstrated that all the founders of the world's religions have come with the same goal: to bring about personal and societal transformation...the core in this book is one man's growth through immersion...By reading this book and meditating on its truths we take a step in our own development. All aboard!"--Tom Mennillo, writer forThe American Baha'i
