Purpose draws potential. Potential brings to life destiny. Understanding you have a purpose is the first brick on the road to destiny! Otis Teague This book asked the question, is the church the worlds only hope? That with all the challenges and changes people are facing within todays society in the game called life, when there is an ever-increasing need for hope, where is the church, and has the church simply been sidelined with injuries? One of the greater questions is, have we lost sight of the things in this world that really matter? Do people still matter, or has that focus been lost behind all the distractions, turmoil, and mentalities of how much I can I gain in the here and now? A book that speaks to your heart about how much you matter to God, letting you know that God loves and that no matter what you have done or where you are in your life that you can make it! If you would just get to know him, trust that he is a keeper of his word, and simply give him a chance to show you yourself. The challenges we face are never more than we could handle, though we never think about that while we are going through them. But after you live through that significant life-changing event, you should realize and know that nothing can overtake you unless you let it, and nothing is greater than the love God has for you.

For the last decade, early modern studies have significantly been reshaped by raising new and different questions on the uses of religion. This ‛religious turn’ has generated new discussion of the social processes at work in early modern Europe and their cultural effects ‐ from the struggle over religious rites and doctrines to the persecution of secret adherents to forbidden practices. The issue of religious pluralisation has been mostly debated in terms of dissent and escalation. But confessional controversy did not always erupt into hostilities over how to symbolize and perform the sacred nor lead to a paralysis of social agency. The order of the day may often have been to suspend confessional allegiances rather than enforce religious conflict, suggesting a pragmatic rather than polemic handling of religious plurality. This raises the urgent question of how 'normal' transconfessional and even transreligious interaction was produced in a context of highly sharpened and always present reflexivity on religious differences. Our volume takes up this question and explores it from an interdisciplinary and interconfessional perspective. The title “Forgetting Faith?” raises the question whether it was necessary or indeed possible to sidestep religious issues in specific contexts and for specific purposes. This does not mean, however, to describe early modern culture as a process of secularization. Rather, the collection invites discussion of the specific ways available to deal with confessional conflict in an oblivional mode, precisely because faith still mattered more than many other social paradigms emerging at that time, such as nationhood, ethnic origin or class defined through property.
