Author:
Pagels, Elaine
Spurred on by personal tragedy, the National Book Award-winning author of The Gnostic Gospels breathes new life into the Gospel of Thomas - once thought heretical - exposing both its profound spiritual truth and the politics that kept it hidden for so many centuries. As she arrives at an ever-deeper conviction in her own faith, Pagels reveals how faith allows for a diversity of interpretations, and that the "rogue" voices of Christianity encourage and sustain "the recognition of the light within us all." Now in paper.
