Jeffrey
Lang shares his experiences as a young man struggling to find
meaning in a world full of turmoil. He recounts his time growing
up in San Francisco when his discovery of the Holy Qur'an compelled
him to reconsider his scepticism of religion. He explains how
within the Qur'an he found the practical answers to his most
pressing philosophical questions of why evil exists, who is God,
and the purpose of life. Follow his heartfelt, rational exploration
of the Qur'an as he "connects the dots" to figure out
what God truly wants from the human being. Dr. Lang, a professor
of mathematics at the University of Kansas, also discusses the
human as an intellectual and moral being, the fall of the first
humans to Earth, the essential elements of faith, how to get
closer to God, and how the Qur'an emphasizes reason in the spiritual
quest. An engaging lecture providing insight into the thought
process of one finding himself on a spiritual journey from atheism
to Islam. (Duration: 1 hour, 32 min) Jeffrey Lang is an American
convert to Islam and author of the best selling works "Struggling
to Surrender", "Even Angels Ask: A Journey to Islam
in America" and "Losing My Religion: A Call For Help".
He also cofounded Generation Islam, a networking group serving
the needs of American born Muslims.
