{"product_id":"god-has-a-really-deep-fred-zackel-9798671815665","title":"God Has A Really Deep Voice","description":"Over the eons the Human species imagined its many conceptions of the Divine as both a tool and a weapon to survive. In one fundamental sense, the Divine is a night light against the dark abyss, the irrational chaos, the indifferent universe. GOD HAS A REALLY DEEP VOICE is about the passionate, urgent and visceral human need for the concept of God, the Divine as Cosmic Force that fills us with shock and awe, and how we then, as cultures and as individuals, wrestled with what we had imagined. Using examples from history and ancient cultures, the Bible, the Koran and modern writers, I show relationships between ideas about God in a manner similar to the CONNECTIONS series from author James Burke. When the old Divine didn't give us the answers we needed, we either changed it or found a new one. At its core the book argues that we always need the Divine, because with the Divine by our side, for a time the universe makes a different kind of sense than before. In GOD HAS A REALLY DEEP VOICE we keep trying to imagine the unimaginable. That struggle defines us and says a lot about us being human. For twenty years I have taught literature and the humanities on the university level, and this book is the first in a broad-ranging series about the reverberations of Being Human. As one religion expert wrote, \"The breadth of Zackel's theological knowledge is impressive, and his ability to place so many different thinkers and traditions side-by-side makes for an interesting, surprising read.\" Photograph by Katherine Zackel.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Fred Zackel\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798671815665\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/03\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 362\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.17lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.81d","brand":"Fred Zackel","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47520716259583,"sku":"9798671815665","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_83b362c9-2e03-483f-8193-f6cd81f7975e.jpg?v=1762886687","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/god-has-a-really-deep-fred-zackel-9798671815665","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
