His Christian outlook gave him the courage to persevere; it strengthened him and shaped his perception. Rivers says he has seriously questioned his Christian beliefs in an attempt to arrive at some kind of understanding and has made many adjustments. Once, he was excommunicated from his family's church in Philadelphia because of his exploration of different approaches.
