Produktbeschreibung

"This book does not offer easy resolutions or tidy conclusions."
PETER ROLLINS

For nearly two millennia, Christians around the world have engaged in a yearly practice of prayer, fasting, and giving: forty days of Lent, designed to ground the believer more firmly in devotion to God.

But what if Lent weren't about requesting and offering benevolence or about staying away from chocolate...but about giving up...God?

Atheism for Lent, the provocative, destabilizing practice of philosopher Dr. Peter Rollins, seeks to explore this question and its shudder-inducing implications. In Appetite for Antithesis: (De)Knowing God in a Lenten Practice, author Courtney Cantrell invites you into her wild, soul-stretching journey through this Lenten decentering. Raw and deeply personal, her essays, poetry, and paintings plunge into the heart of doubt, belief, and everything in-between.

With humor and unflinching honesty, Cantrell wrestles with the giants of philosophy and theology while sharing her own story of deconstruction and discovery. Whether you're a skeptic, a seeker, or someone who's just plain curious about the tension between belief and unbelief, this book will challenge your assumptions and reveal the beauty in the chaos. Because faith stripped down to its bare bones is where the real transformation begins.

This isn't just a book. It's an invitation to rethink everything.
