Sohrab Ahmari - No Way to Build a World: Ep. 1

from Good Faith Effort · host SoulShop

As far as creation stories go, the Bible’s, let’s admit it, is messy: in the first few chapters alone, we see trials and redos, sin and murder, and much more failure than success. What can this deeply flawed account of the beginning of all things teach us about ourselves? Sohrab Ahmari, prominent writer and opinion editor for the New York Post, joins us to tell the story of his own recreation, which took him from Iran to New York and from Islam to Marxism and, finally, to a deep commitment to the Catholic faith.

Tao Te Ching by Laozi (Author), Stephen Mitchell (Full Audiobook) Laozi Lao-tzu's Tao Te Ching, or Book of the Way, is the classic manual on the art of living, and one of the wonders of the world. In eighty-one brief chapters, the Tao Te Ching looks at the basic predicament of being alive and gives advice that imparts balance and perspective, a serene and generous spirit. This book is about wisdom in action. It teaches how to work for the good with the effortless skill that comes from being in accord with the Tao (the basic principle of the universe) and applies equally to good government and sexual love; to child rearing, business, and ecology.Stephen Mitchell's bestselling version has been widely acclaimed as a gift to contemporary culture.
