The Way Up Is Down
The Way Up Is Down: Becoming Yourself by Forgetting Yourself | Marlena Graves
1 post | 1 read
For writer, professor, and activist Marlena Graves, formation and justice always intertwine on the path to a balanced life of both action and contemplation. Drawing on the rich traditions of Eastern and Western Christian saints, she describes the process of emptying herself that allows her to move upward toward God and become the true self that God calls her to.

This book arrives at a time when the world is greatly in need of gracious understanding and compassion for each other, in spite of various differences. The author writes clearly and provides meaningful examples. I was fortunate to be in a small group discussion with the author before the book was released, and she‘s delightful. I look forward to reading more by this author.
