Items related to Luck: A Secular Faith
In this book, Wayne Oates defines luck as a secular faith, examining the ways in which the idea of our experiences being based on luck dominates much of our thinking about how and why our lives develop as they do. According to Oates, this secular "faith in luck" is unhealthy and should be countered with faith in God.

About the Author:
Wayne E. Oates was Senior Research Professor at the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville, Kentucky. Oates was interested in the relationship between theology and psychiatry, and wrote over fifty books on this subject before his death in 1999.
From the Back Cover:
The dramatic difference between such an affirmation of faith in God and 'trusting in luck' or 'mistrusting luck' underlines the assumption that luck is a secular faith.
