It's no secret that religion is on the decline in the U.S. Diana Butler Bass, leading commentator on religion, politics, and culture, argues that this decline is really a transformation in how people understand and experience God: a more intimate sense of God with us and in the world, a less "vertical" and more "horizontal" focus. This transformation is a spiritual revolution, one that challenges religious, social, and political institutions.

The title, Grounded, refers to how more and more people are finding and embracing God in creation, at home, and in their neighborhoods rather than in churches... not "there", but "right here on the ground with us". Bass uses her knowledge of history, theology, and contemporary research to invite readers to join this emerging spiritual revolution, find a revitalized expression of faith, and change the world.
