What if Nothing was not the absence of meaning, but its birthplace? What if divinity was not found in certainty, but in the unknowable, the untouchable, and the undefinable space beyond it? This is not a book of answers. The Gospel of Nothing is a journey into paradox, an exploration of the void from which all things emerge. It dares to ask: Is the sacred something we can hold, or is it the space left untouched? Is the divine a presence—or an absence? We are creatures obsessed with meaning, weaving it into the fabric of existence, unable to escape the instinct to search.

America's problem with race has deep roots, with the country's foundation tied to the near extermination of one race of people and the enslavement of another. Racism is truly our nation's original sin. "It's time we right this unacceptable wrong", says best-selling author and leading Christian activist Jim Wallis. Fifty years ago, Wallis was driven away from his faith by a white church that considered dealing with racism to be taboo.

In the early 1980s on a remote part of the Sudanese coast, a new luxury holiday resort opened for business. Catering for divers, it attracted guests from around the world. Little did the holidaymakers know that the staff were undercover spies, working for the Mossad - the Israeli secret service. Providing a front for covert night-time activities, the holiday village allowed the agents to carry out an operation unlike any seen before. What began with one cryptic message pleading for help, turned into the secret evacuation of thousands of Ethiopian Jews....

He had science and an Ivy League pedigree―why did he need God?

To placate his twin, he reluctantly began exploring the Bible and the life of Jesus. Seeking proof of God’s existence, he found himself in a world of uncertainty, faced with plenty of reasons for both faith and doubt. In Chasing Proof, Finding Faith, Tom, now a rising young theoretical physicist, traces his journey to unexpected faith.

In this book he takes us from Bethlehem and the birth of Christ some 2000-odd years ago, to the immediate present and future of Christianity. He brings together a Baptist Church in the segregationist American South with a medieval monastery in the heart of the Greek countryside; the Vatican - beautiful, imposing, vainglorious, the seat of Catholicism - with a sparse, tiny private church above the rocky coastline of Southern Japan. Twelve Churches is a quest for a new people's history of Christianity, told through the stories of twelve churches scattered across the globe.

I have been an Occult researcher for 50 years, and have directly interacted with dozens of individuals experiencing demonic possession. Rather than attempting to exorcise them, I would sit down and have a drink with them, asking questions and letting them tell their side of the story. I remain friends with some of them, even was married to one for a decade. I learned more from those conversations than I could've ever learned from any book.
