My tenth book – this one a collection of speeches and sermons delivered across the U.S. between 2010 and 2015. When I ran for Asheville City Council in 2009 a group of political opponents decided to tar me with accusations of atheism. No stranger has ever done me a bigger favor. With a little help from Rachel Maddow who aired a story about their efforts to prevent me from taking office I garnered my 15 minutes of fame and launched a modest career as a speaker for humanist, secular and atheist groups. The attack did wonders for my book sales as well.
Thanks folks! I needed that!
