The Measure of a Man: A Spiritual Autobiography

Cover of The Measure of a Man: A Spiritual Autobiography.

I picked this one up because I was curious what he would put in a “spiritual autobiograpy”. It ends up being a strong dose of moralism (“the measure of a man is how he provides for his family”) mixed with a lot of naturalistic theism (“there is a god that we see in nature”). Poitier may be “a good man”, but, sadly, seems quite muddled spiritually.
