Caught between the much-publicized accusations against modern religious sects and his own belief that all roads that lead to God are good, Dr. Bach began a search for the right answer. This book is the fascinating story of that search. He sought out members of Jehovah's Witnesses and followed as they made converts with the zeal of Apostles. He knew Aimee Semple McPherson and lived among the people to whom the flamboyant evangelist meant salvation. He attended dramatic seances with ardent Spiritualists. He visited Father Divine in his Kingdoms where the little Negro is regarded as God. He joined in the serene worship in the beautiful temple of the exotic Baha'i faith. He investigated the faith cures of Unity believers. He studied the changed lives of the Oxford Group. He inquired of the founder of Psychiana and his students concerning the religious inspiration of a mail-order course.
