Temple Mysteries and Spiritual Efficiency

Spirituality is not excused from the need to be efficient. Current scandals in the churches betoken not just sin but inefficiency. This book inquires into factors the faith has lost, forgotten or not understood almost from the first and needs if it is to change. Everything from exorcism and the cult of the saints to gay issues and the creation/evolution debate are reviewed against the background of unfamiliar principles and mysteries related to the Temple that coloured earliest Christian thought.
