Faith Beyond Belief book cover with David Steindl-Rast, Anselm Grün

Faith Beyond Belief: Spirituality for Our Times is a personal, surprising, and heart-warming book wherein two spiritual masters of our time advance the central questions of life and faith.

Brother David Steindl-Rast and Father Anselm Grün are figures of hope, people who by the power of their example can offer an orientation in a world that has become too complex to comprehend. The spirituality they radiate is an everyday thing that is nevertheless both profound and vivid.

“Our conversations, on which this book is based, could be read as a ‘crash course’ in Christian spirituality. This book will be an inspiration and an aid to spiritual life for many people of our time, whether they are believers or not.”
— Johannes Kaup, from the Introduction
