A celebration of pluralism in America, "Wrestling with God" follows a skeptical journalist's pilgrimage through the religions of the world. The author's quest for a way to believe in the 21st century leads to encounters with the divine in the lives of diverse Americans, including a progressive Muslim, a Buddhist monk who undertakes a 650-mile bowing pilgrimage, an atheist who conducts an experiment on God, and a Congregationalist minister who questions God’s goodness. An interfaith book.
