Purpose and Description Religious affiliation is down, though belief in God remains. People say they do not need religion for a relationship with God. They do not trust the veracity of religious proclamations due to the incongruity of those beliefs with current knowledge. The Death of Religion and the Resurrection of God aims to ignite the imagination of people on religious topics considered close to analysis, such as sin and salvation, creation and history, atonement and the cross. By reflecting on the veracity of religious teachings, readers can explore religious faith with the goal of analyzing the perceived and proclaimed knowledge of God and ourselves. Through Twelve Postulates (Chapters) divided into Three Parts - The Problem, The Path, The Promise - this concise book enables readers to consider the validity of religious beliefs. In Part I - The Problem, the book addresses people's questions on the knowledge of God and ourselves in religious doctrine, such as sin and human nature, atonement and the cross, salvation and society, creation and history, and religious a priori. In Part II - The Path, a way to address this problem is presented by reinvigorating people's understanding of God as the Creative Process which enables people to live fully now. This path synthesizes current knowledge with people's search for God. In Part III - The Promise, the book resurrects people's hopes through trusting the Creative Process of God. The book demonstrates that by affirming the Creative Process and all life in it, we find the fulfillment of theology and life, including the ethics of living day to day. Audience Addressed Therefore, the book is meant for an audience in and outside of religion who have questions regarding religious doctrine. Because of the topics covered, the book is suitable for individuals with an interest in God and religion, readers with a high school education or more, college students studying religion, seminarians who are preparing for ministry, scholars interested in the philosophy of religion, clergy and congregations that address people's concerns in individual or group study, and people without any religious affiliation. About the Author Jack Hughes Robinson has been a pastor since 1979 (PCUSA), a visiting professor with a PhD in Historical Theology, and a published author of John Calvin and the Jews (Peter Lang 1992).
