The Wellsprings of Religion
Fr Alexander Men faced specific challenges to faith in the Soviet Union, but the questions he raises and answers in this volume resonate on a universal level: Does religion belong only to the past? How is religion related to culture? What is faith? How is religion related to science? The Wellsprings of Religion brings Fr Alexander Men's voracious curiosity to bear on the issues of our day, as he seeks to bring Orthodox faith into dialogue with the world at large.
This volume is the first in Fr Alexander Men's magnum opus, The History of Religion: In Search of the Way, the Truth, and the Life. In the author's words, "The aim of the work is to sketch out, in an accessible way, the drama of spiritual history...in the light of a holistic Christian worldview...and so the series as a whole can be seen as an attempt at a synthesis of religion, philosophy, and history...[that will] help readers see in the history of religion, not a host of delusions, but streams flowing and carried onwards, as in rivers and brooks, into the ocean of the New Testament."
