Almost any parent you asked would tell you that they want their children to be happy, successful adults. But many of us forget (or never knew to begin with) that lasting personal joy is not necessarily found the way the world says it is - through reaching a certain socioeconomic status, having a certain job, buying a certain house, or having a certain amount in one's bank account.

For over a century, there has been marked tension between faith and modernity. Some argue religion is outmoded, and while there are valid criticisms brought to bear against institutionalised religion, this dismissal is hasty and uninformed. Our impulse toward the religious experience is undiminished, and even those who reject the faiths of their fathers still feel the pull.
