My Higher Power: How Science, History, and Recovery Led Me to a Faith That Makes Sense

What if the greatest obstacles to faith aren’t science, doubt, or even addiction—but the stories we’ve been told about God, the Bible, and ourselves? In this honest, searching memoir, the author traces a journey from the depths of addiction and skepticism to a hard-won, deeply personal faith. Along the way, he dismantles the false dichotomies between science and spirituality, exposes the historical roots of religious fundamentalism, and uncovers the practical genius of ancient biblical wisdom. With clarity, humility, and a touch of humor, he invites readers to question inherited dogmas, embrace both reason and wonder, and discover a God big enough for both the cosmos and the messiness of real life. This is a book for anyone who has ever doubted, struggled, or longed for a faith that makes sense in the modern world.
