Feel free to look around. There is a page where you can contact me with any questions or comments about the book. There is also a link to my blog. I try to post at least once a month. Thanks for visiting!
If you haven't read the book, here is a description.
Transforming Faith uses the time tested strategy of storytelling to blaze an adventurous new path for spiritual growth and faith development. Utilizing tales from personal experience, ancient wisdom teachings, as well as popular culture, Howard cuts a wide swath through the provincial literalisms of conventional Christianity. The book manages to clear this path through the many difficult and sensitive issues in the contemporary spiritual and religious landscape while maintaining a healthy and commendable respect for all faith traditions.
Those looking for relevance for the life of the spirit in today's jaded times should find a kind and helpful guide in Dr. Howard. He takes a decidedly different approach to faith development beginning with a section on the role imagination plays in spiritual growth. From there the author expands his unconventional approach into the areas of faith, compassion, God, and Christianity.
Following in the footsteps of M. Scott Peck's The Road Less Traveled, this book offers a fresh and sometimes unconventional guide to understanding your spirituality. It recently received a Nautilus Book Award. Among its other honors: the silver medal in the 2015 Colorado Independent Publishers Association Awards, finalist in the 2015 National Indie Excellence, Independent Author Network, Readers Favorite, Beverly Hills, and the Next Generation Indie Book Awards.
