A landmark collection of the philosophers and firebrands who sparked a country's journey through divinity—praising, challenging, and redefining the sacred.
Spanning more than 400 years of spiritual transformation and imagination, A Nation Wrestles With God collects diverse writers—poets, novelist, theologians, scientist, musicians, politicians, comedians, artists, mavericks, naturalist, futurists, and more—whose daring texts incited change and continue to influence a growing nation. In this anthology, you will find the stories, letters, speeches, sermons, and essays, as well as song lyrics, comic strips, newspaper columns, and blog posts, that awoke new generations to free religious thought, from the pre-colonial to the present day.
