by William Stringfellow (Author)
Apart from God alone, in what do Americans seek meaning, identity, self-worth, and justification? With devastating simplicity, this inquiry into contemporary idolatry probes a range of subjects: religion, race, work, money, status, patriotism, and even the church. All this in a concise, readable primer. In the end, William Stringfellow's biblical sensibility parts the curtain to expose the impostor behind the impostors, death itself.
