What if you found a version of faith in God that did not ask you to deny scientific truths or to blindly accept what you consider frankly impossible?
Sue Sorensen has walked the path of a seeker of faith, through the dark alleys of addiction and recovery, and has wrestled with troubling questions that arise from a religion vs. science viewpoint. Sorensen has taken on what many people face but choose to ignore - mostly because they have no way to deal with the contradictions. Sorensen has had a successful career in business as a learning and development professional and has presented numerous business courses on a wide variety of topics, including Emotional Intelligence, Critical Thinking and Problem-Solving.
Cognitive Faith provides an approach to faith for those that:
· have discarded any version of faith in God or found a religion to lack credibility…
· are realists, nerds, or hopeless skeptics, that nevertheless like to read intellectually challenging propositions…
· have explored self-help and made progress but are looking to accelerate their personal growth and development…
· are troubled and need some help with finding the strength to change…
Courageously written, Cognitive Faith challenges and disputes some of the central premises of religious faith, including most religious lore, and religious morality and behavioral dictates. With pointed rebukes for the regrettably common inclination toward irrational thinking, in our personal lives, in our spiritual lives, and in current political and social systems, this book nevertheless blazes a path for a modern-day, rational, cognitive version of empowering faith.
From brontosaurs to bosons, from after-life to daily life, from miracles to meanness, and from Pascal’s Wager to present-day politics. If belief in God is to remain relevant in today’s world a new version of faith is required.
