Love Is the Way: Holding on to Hope in Troubling Times by Bishop Michael B. Curry, Sara Grace
5.0
I received this book as thank-you-for-your-donation gift from Sojourners. Because I trust and appreciate the work of Sojourners immensely, and because, like the rest of the world, I loved Bishop Curry's Meghan/Harry wedding sermon, I read it. Frankly, based on the title and the cover, I entered in skeptically, expecting that it might be a bit too upbeat and optimistic for these dark times of death-dealing injustice. And if it was the only thing someone read, maybe it would be. But as an accompaniment to digging in hard with multiple voices and conversations, I found this book to be a much-needed refreshment of hope for this long and arduous journey to which we are called, as Christians and as members of the human family. Is being centered in Love ever a bad thing? I hope not. Curry shares with conviction, transparency, honesty and grace from his lived experience as a black man of faith in America; I'm so glad I read this book!
