FaithX Project Debuts as a Kickstarter Campaign, March 31

    NEW YORK, NY, March 31, 2016 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Ken Howard, the extrapreneurial faith leader, congregational pastor, church futurist and author of Paradoxy: Creating Christian Community Beyond Us and Them, will today launch a Kickstarter Campaign, both to complete the writing of a groundbreaking book and to create a global faith community based on the principles and practices illustrated in that book.

FaithX: Experimental Faith Communities for an Undiscovered Future is the book at the center of a crowd-funding campaign that looks beyond the simple hatching of a conventional book publishing project.

"The FaithX Project is working to provide leaders with the tools to build lean and experimental faith-based communities and organizations that can survive and thrive in the midst of the singularity of uncertainty and change that is the 21st century," reads the pull-passage on the home page at www.FaithX.net.

"The Kickstarter campaign has two main goals," said Howard. "The first goal is to provide the necessary resources to write (and if necessary publish) the book and develop the FaithX online network. The second goal is to use the crowd-funding mechanism itself to identify faith leaders and faith communities interested in applying FaithX practices, or perhaps already engaged in some of them."

"I'm so excited about this project," Howard continued, "the potential it holds for the future of faith-based communities and organizations, the possibilities inherent in bringing together experience and insights from practitioners across multiple disciplines, and the practical synergy that comes from creating resources with the active input of those who stand to benefit from them."

"In an age of box-checking when 'none of the above' has become the fastest-growing religious demographic, Ken Howard seeks to demonstrate the resiliency of faith amid the decline of religion," said Patrick Berzinski, CEO of Tranquility49 PR. "Postulating a 100-year progress toward a 'Religion Singularity,' in which organized Christianity disintegrates at an accelerating pace into thousands of tiny sects, Howard outlines a plan to found and grow 'faith communities' capable of outlasting the chaos. An Episcopal Church leader born into the Jewish faith, Howard is uniquely equipped, both as a believer and a scholar, to guide the reader on a fascinating tour of the past, present and future of faith and spirituality."
