Read Andrew Park's post on the Penguin Blog.
Stumped when his children start asking questions about God, a
lifelong nonbeliever takes a colorful and thought- provoking tour
of religion in America.
At age thirty-six, Andrew park hit a parenting snag. Teaching his
children about ethics, good manners, and the perfect free throw
posed no problem. But when they started asking about religion, he
came up empty-handed. He was raised faith-free in a household of
nonbelievers. Confronted with the responsibilities of being a young
father, park knew it was his place to find the answers to his
children's questions about spirituality-and perhaps some of his
own. "Between a Church and a Hard Place" is the often funny, yet
deeply tender story of that quest.
Though Park and his wife are not religious, "Between a Church and
a Hard Place" doesn't so much struggle with God as it struggles
with whether to struggle with God. From megachurches to Humanism
Seminars, Park explores the polar reaches of religion in our
country while trying to find a comfortable middle ground for
himself and his family. With the perfect blend of humor and
humility, he uncovers what it means to embrace religion-or
not-while still being a good role model, and most important, still
being true to himself. In the spirit of "Father Knows Less" and
"Foreskin's Lament," Park's story is a captivating exploration of
parenthood, and the beliefs that shape our culture.
