The Soul Of The World by Roger Scruton

An Argument for the Existence of God

A compact philosophical meditation that defends the reality and necessity of the spiritual realm, arguing that beauty, ritual, love and religious feeling disclose goods that materialism and scientism cannot account for; it insists that human life needs sacred practices, shared meanings and moral virtues to cultivate a sense of the world as more than objects, and sketches how art, architecture, music and liturgy sustain a public space in which transcendence and moral goods can be experienced and transmitted.
