Produktbeschreibung
The popular Exploring the Religions of Our World textbook has supported introductory high school courses on world religions for more than twenty years. The revised and updated version includes a number of new student-friendly features such as infographics, section assessments, photo and image features, updated chapter reviews, and projects geared toward various learning styles. A new appendix offers background on major American Indigenous religions, atheists, agnostics, and the rising class of "nones" in the United States. You will continue to find information on Christian denominations with origins in the US as well. The updated Exploring the Religions of Our World maintains its easy-to-follow format of five sections per chapter--history, scriptures, sacred times, sacred places, and comparison with Catholicism. Additionally, the sequence begins with chapters on Judaism, Christianity, and Islam--the religious traditions students are most familiar with--and also includes chapters on Hinduism, Buddhism, Chinese religions, and Japanese religions explained through the lens of their own beliefs and traditions.
Autorenporträt
Founded in 1865 by Fr. Edward Sorin, CSC, Ave Maria Press is an apostolate of the Congregation of Holy Cross, United States Province of Priests and Brothers. Ave is a nonprofit Catholic publishing ministry that serves the spiritual and formative needs of the Church and its schools, institutions, and ministers; Christian individuals and families; and others seeking spiritual nourishment. Ave remains one of the oldest continually operating Catholic publishing houses in the country and a leader in publishing Catholic high school religion textbooks, ministry resources, and books on prayer and spirituality. In the tradition of Holy Cross, Ave is committed, as an educator in the faith, to help people know, love, and serve God and to spread the gospel of Jesus Christ through books and other resources. Ave Maria Press perpetuates Fr. Sorin's vision to honor Mary and provide an important outlet for good Catholic writing.
