Description: Like many young Christians, Kevin Brown had what he believed to be a strong faith, one that provided answers to all the questions he had and might encounter. He even attended a Christian college and considered becoming a youth minister. While there, though, he began having doubts about his faith, began asking questions that came from discussions both in and out of the classroom--questions he couldn't find answers to. When the church told him he shouldn't be asking those questions, he left the church and his faith behind. He kept asking questions, though, and kept looking for a faith that would allow him to have questions and doubts, yet still believe. What he found may offer an answer to the religious divide in our society--one that separates evangelical from progressive Christians, one that separates sacred from secular. In this memoir, Brown describes his spiritual journey from his first faith to the loss of faith to the way he found back to a Christianity where he can ask those questions, a different way than he knew before. He still has questions and doubts, but he also has faith, in spite of and because of those questions and doubts. Endorsements: ""What I like most about Another Way is the author's ability to see his past clearly, express/confess where he stands today, and explain that every spiritual journey is part of God's mystery, beyond our understanding. Kevin Brown gets it."" --Jon M. Sweeney Author of Almost Catholic and The Pope Who Quit About the Contributor(s): Kevin Brown teaches at Lee University. He has one book of poetry, Exit Lines (2009), and two chapbooks, Abecedarium (2011) and Holy Days: Poems (winner of Split Oak Press Chapbook Contest in 2011). His poems have been published or are forthcoming in REAL, Folio, the Connecticut Review, and the South Carolina Review, among other journals. His essays have appeared in various publications, including The Chronicle of Higher Education, Academe, and The Teaching Professor.
