Hunger exists amid plenty. Technology too often serves violence. Forests and species are threatened, and the planet's climate is changing. These Achilles' heels of the otherwise spectacular 20th century threaten to unravel the many gains of that era. The values responsible for these fundamental flaws will need to be corrected if human progress is to continue into the 21st century. Fortunately, many religious people and institutions are stepping up to the challenge with inspiring initiatives to care for the environment and to rethink the way wealth is used in our world. Their contributions, while relatively modest compared to their potential, add value to the movement to build a sustainable world. Increased religious involvement in the effort could help usher in a brighter future of human progress. The pages of this book, you can find out how. Finally, someone has pulled together a comprehensive book on the influence of religion on cultural change. Inspiring Progress is just that, an informative accounting of the diverse ways that faith communities will lead and inspire a more sustainable lifestyle.Please feel free to ask any questions.
