Gladwell faith

Malcolm Gladwell is a best-selling author (Tipping Point, Outliers, Blink) and a well-known writer at the New Yorker since 1996.  He has a page at amazon.com, and a page at TED Talks.com.  But who knew he grew up in a Christian home.




He says he was the only one of his family to walk away from "the church" and from his native country, Canada.  Researching for a new book, he began to understand something he had not understood before:

"I have always believed in God. I have grasped the logic of Christian faith. What I have had a hard time seeing is God’s power."  He began to see this power apparently in the strength of spirit to be found in very ordinary Christians.

Read his story here.
