This book offers readers an in-depth analysis of the evolution and impact of religion beyond traditional definitions and denominations. The book begins by using the psychology of Viktor Frankl to understand the personalization of religious experience, then moves on to discuss different types of religious institutions like sects, churches, and cults, examining their historical development and current roles in society. Additional chapters explore the world's major religious traditions, highlighting their core values and contemporary challenges. The final chapter is dedicated to emerging religious movements, providing a nuanced understanding of how new traditions are reshaping the religious landscape. The book's unique framework encourages students to appreciate the diversity and commonalities among world religions. It facilitates the critique of religions when they contribute to societal issues, such as discrimination, while acknowledging their role in personal development and social justice. Through this lens, students learn to reconceive religion as a dynamic system reflecting individual and communal meanings and experiences. The "Meaning" of Religion is an ideal resource for courses in religious studies and world religions. The text supports the development of a comprehensive understanding of religion's multifaceted impact on society and personalized expressions of faith.
