About this title

Synopsis

Feel confident navigating the world's religions―no matter your background.

In an increasingly connected (and often divided) world, understanding the spiritual beliefs of others isn't just helpful―it's essential. 12 Major World Religions is the accessible, unbiased guide readers trust to make sense of the beliefs, rituals, and traditions that shape our global society.

Author Jason Boyett distills years of religious research into a readable, respectful, and refreshingly neutral exploration of twelve influential world faiths. Without promoting or dismissing any belief system, this book helps you explore how and why people worship, and what that means in their lives―and yours.

If you're spiritually curious, preparing for interfaith dialogue, or simply want to stop feeling lost in religious conversations, this guide delivers the clarity and confidence you've been looking for.

Inside, you'll explore:

Christianity, Islam, Judaism, Hinduism, Buddhism, Sikhism, Jainism, Baha'i, Taoism, Confucianism, Shinto, and Zoroastrianism
Origins, teachings, practices, and global impact of each tradition
How to speak intelligently and compassionately about unfamiliar beliefs
Where different religions overlap―and where they respectfully diverge
The power of spiritual literacy to foster empathy and cultural connection

Whether you're a teacher, student, seeker, or lifelong learner, 12 Major World Religions equips you with the knowledge to navigate faith with confidence―and the empathy to connect with people across belief systems.

Start your journey toward deeper understanding and open-minded conversation today.

We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies.
