Chuck has been featured in a new book by Jon Spade titled: How to Believe: Teachers and Seekers Show the Way to a Modern Life-Changing Faith published in 2008 by Random House.

ABOUT THIS BOOK: After seeing Christianity become increasingly defined in the media as a narrow and punitive political movement, Spayde began to wonder: Are religions now just combatants in the culture wars? Should he leave the organized church? How are ordinary people using faith positively to search for the truth and improve their lives? “Jon Spayde is a convivial and wise spiritual scout, who guides us in the direction of a robust Christianity that is deeply grounded in love.

Along the way we meet remarkable figures from diverse religious traditions who inspire with their intelligence, insight and faith. This is the perfect book for all of us who yearn for a greater connection with the divine but still feel a little nervous walking through the church doors.” –Jay Walljasper, senior editor, Ode

 

“I think over again my small adventures, my fears…..those small ones that seemed so big.  For all the vital things I had to get and to reach . And yet there is only one great thing. The Only Thing. To live to see the Great Day that dawns and the light that fills the world.” Old Inuit Hymn from the movie Never Cry Wolf
