Summary
The religious impulse is easier to rebrand than to extinguish. Declining levels of church attendance causes us to believe more and more people are abandoning faith. What these polls fail to report is that the marketplace in replacement religion is booming. Religious observance has migrated-- everyday activities are filling in for church attendance. Zahl brings us to a fresh appreciation for the grace of God in all its counter cultural wonder. -- adapted from jacket flap and back cover
