About this ebook

Hyper-individualism and consumerism have failed to satisfy our hunger for meaning. We face an identity crisis in which people are lonely, and anxiety is high. Culture wars show our deep divisions over what our changing moral standards should become. Is it possible to find a vision for goodness that can bring us together?


Rumours of a Better Country addresses our hunger for a better way of living by awakening a vision of trust and a trusting community. Drawing on the ancient wisdom of the Decalogue, it demonstrates how the freedom to trust and the call to trustworthiness are the most fulfilling of freedoms.

From the author's chance encounter with the Palestinian Liberation Organization in a pub in Communist Czechoslovakia, to the questions and mysteries of Café Now and Not Yet, and to the ancient slopes of Mount Sinai, Rumours of a Better Country takes us on a rich and provocative journey into the heart of goodness and why it matters.

Author

Marsh Moyle

During the Cold War, Marsh Moyle and his wife Tuula smuggled books behind the Iron Curtain, organising illegal book translation and distribution. His work in central and eastern Europe both under and after Communism gives him a unique perspective from which to engage the cultural challenges of today. Marsh now works for the charity CityGate and teaches across central Europe, the USA, South Africa and Brazil.
