Designed especially for the classroom and general readers, this book is a basic primer on the meaning of faith, distinguishing that from false understandings. The original edition was published in 2010.

“The wisdom and insights gained from a lifetime of profound thinking are evident throughout this excellent guide to the meaning of faith—broadly construed. Clear and accessible while also deeply thought-provoking, this beautiful book will be an invaluable companion to college students as well as to mature adults grappling with their faith or lack thereof. I know of no better book to lead people through the process of thinking about what most matters to them.”—Mary Doak, University of San Diego

“With rare clarity and intellectual generosity, Tilley shows that faith is far more than assent, sentiment, or religious affiliation; it is, at its heart, a way of being in relationship. In a world increasingly marked by alienation, this book challenges us to consider how we are called to relate to one another and to God. Thoughtful and illuminating, it invites readers to reflect on the faith commitments that animate our lives and inform how we live together in the world.”—Ryan G. Duns, SJ, Marquette University
