The
Future of Faith
Summary
of the book
Many people fear the future, but renowned
futurologist Adjiedj Bakas and journalist
Minne
Buwalda believe that we are on the brink
of an inspiring new age.
The economic and political world-order
is changing fast. Capitalism is in the
process of
renewal after the recent economic crisis.
Emerging countries such as China and
India are
taking over as Europe and Russia retreat.
The climate is changing under the infl
uence of
humanity's onslaught on the environment.
These economic, political and environmental
shifts will bring with them seismic
changes for the individuals and communities
of the
world. The Future of Faith examines
how these fundamental changes will reshape
the ethics, morality, religion and spirituality
that underpin our lives.
It is clear that the future will not
be fair to everybody, but neither was
the past. And in this
new century we will be able to organize
and optimize our own happiness in ways
we once
couldn't begin to imagine.
The world is facing dramatic changes
that signal the end of the old era and
the dawn of a new one. Economics, the
environment, our energy supplies, access
to food and water
are all in question and in this transition
period our faith, ethics, religion and
spirituality will become more important
than ever. Many fear the transition
we are undergoing. But renowned futurologist
Adjiedj Bakas and journalist Minne Buwalda
show us in The Future of Faith, that
we now have the potential to reinvent
ourselves and our world, and to renew
our spiritual base. They show us how
we can utilize technology, knowledge
systems, and social networks to seize
the change and create ever more fulfilling
spiritual lives.
The Future of Faith reveals seven major
developments which will influence the
religious and spiritual lives of us
all. Bakas and Buwalda show how, by
understanding these changes, businesses
and individuals can look forward to
a brighter future.
