Description: David Ramsey was a Baptist minister who holds degrees from Wake Forest University and Duke University. He is author of the book Speaking of God: A Former Minister Reflects on God and Religion.
An honest and penetrating examination of religious practices and beliefs, including belief in God, from former minister turned iconoclast D.B. Ramsey.
After spending nearly ten years studying religion at prestigious academic institutions including Duke and Princeton and a decade as a Baptist minister, D.B. Ramsey experienced a crisis of faith and walked away from the ministry.
In this candid, witty and stimulating book, Ramsey invokes historical-critical biblical scholarship, human psychology, classic philosophy and modern literature — as well as common sense and his own personal experience — to critically examine religion. He traces the journey of his own doubt, from the foundation of Christianity to the very existence of God.
