Love Is the Way
Love Is the Way: Holding on to Hope in Troubling Times | Sara Grace, Bishop Michael Curry
1 post | 1 read | 2 to read
Walk the path of love with one of the warmest, most beloved spiritual leaders of our time, and learn how to put faith into action. Much of the world (read: two billion people) met Bishop Michael Curry when he delivered his sermon on the redemptive power of love at the royal wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle at Windsor Castle. Here, he expands on his message of hope, in an inspirational roadmap for living the way of love, illuminated with moving lessons from his own life. As the descendant of slaves and the son of a civil rights activist, Bishop Curry's life illustrates massive changes in our times. Through the prism of his faith, ancestry, and personal journey, Love is the Way shows us how America came this far and, more importantly, how to go a whole lot farther. The way of love is essential for addressing the seemingly insurmountable challenges facing the world today: poverty, racism, selfishness, deep ideological divisions, competing claims to speak for God. This book will lead readers to discover the gifts they need in order to live the way of love: deep reservoirs of hope and resilience, simple wisdom, the discipline of nonviolence, and unshakable regard for human dignity.

A hopeful, honest, encouraging book about living a life of love that moves past your own personal bubble. Curry urges a return to love as a unifying force, building on shared values and working towards the common good for all people.

It is also part memoir as Curry tells of his upbringing, losing his mother at a young age, and becoming the first African American presiding bishop of the Episcopal church. Just wonderful.
