Featured text: Major Religions of the World by Marcus Bach (link to a digital version)

 Introduction:

“The history of religion is the thrilling story of man’s upward climb to God…  Out of early man’s bold journey to find God – in his glorious adventure to reach the mountain peak of his experience – he joined with other men…  Together they fashioned their altars and their shrines, and that, simply stated, is how organized religion began.”  (Bach: pages 11 & 12)

“Our search in this study is to discover what each faith does in and for the lives of its adherents.” (Bach page 18)

In this class, we will endeavor to increase our understanding and foster an experience of other spiritual paths.
