In July of 2011, I found myself heartbroken, jobless, and without a place to live. Desperately wanting to find meaning in life, I casually started asking friends, then acquaintances, then total strangers how they found meaning in their own. Then, a radical idea occurred to me -- one that has changed my life forever. I would ride my bike across the United States and ask everyday citizens about the secrets to life. I then would apply what I learned to my own life. There were only two problems with my plan: first I didn't own a bike and second, I hadn't ridden one in 15 years. This book is about my life changing ride. It is about how everyday occurrences became miracles and how the simplest, most common of activities turned into profoundly deep and enlightening life lessons. And since the point of my quest was to understand just what a meaningful life looks like, this book is also about the six and a half characteristics that all meaningful lives share in common.

Book Description: Doing theology is like building a comically circuitous Rube Goldberg machine: you spend your time tinkering together an unnecessarily complicated, impractical, and ingenious apparatus for doing things that are, in themselves, simple. But there is a kind of joy in theology s gratuity, there is a pleasure in its comedic machination, and ultimately if the balloon pops, the hamster spins, the chain pulls, the bucket empties, the pulley lifts, and (voila ) the book s page is turned some measurable kind of work is accomplished. But this work is a byproduct. The beauty of the machine, like all beauty, is for its own sake. This book is itself a Rube Goldberg machine, pieced together from a variety of essays written over the past ten years. They offer explicit reflections on what it means to practice theology as a modern Mormon scholar and they stake out substantial and original positions on the nature of the atonement, the soul, testimony, eternal marriage, humanism, and the historicity of the Book of Mormon. Praise for Rube Goldberg Machines: Adam Miller is the most original and provocative Latter-day Saint theologian practicing today. Richard Bushman, author of "Joseph Smith: Rough Stone Rolling"
Miller is a theologian of the ordinary, thinking about our ordinary beliefs in very non-ordinary ways while never insisting that the ordinary become extra-ordinary. James Faulconer, Richard L. Evans Chair of Religious Understanding, Brigham Young University
Rube Goldberg Machines is one of the best and most important commentaries on the gospel and on life itself that I have ever read. Thomas F. Rogers, "BYU Studies Quarterly"
Rube Golberg is a landmark work in the world of Mormon theology. Kirk Caudle, "The Mormon Book Review"
A theology of pure immanency is what Adam s given us and I can only hope that Mormon theology will never be the same again. Clark Goble, Mormon Metaphysics
This is great theology in all the right ways, but you ll have to read it yourselves to get a taste for its power. Buy the book and read it. Seriously. Samuel Brown, author of In Heaven as It Is On Earth: Joseph Smith and the Early Mormon Conquest of Death
Adam Miller s Rube Goldberg Theology is full of ingenious, even dazzling formulations, and of lovely, often bracing and sometimes startling insights. Ralph Hancock, SquareTwo
It is a work of truly great theology that only could have been contrived ... by a brilliant Mormon. Brad Kramer, By Common Consent
Miller s Rube Goldberg theology is nothing like anything done in the Mormon tradition before. Blake Ostler, author of the Exploring Mormon Thought series About the Author: Adam S. Miller is a professor of philosophy at Collin College in McKinney, Texas. He is the author of Badiou, Marion, and St. Paul: Immanent Grace and Speculative Grace: An Experiment with Bruno Latour in Object-Oriented Theology, editor of An Experiment on the Word: Reading Alma 32, and director of the Mormon Theology Seminar.
