A Language of Healing for a Polarized Nation

Christ Church Cranbook make this recommendation for this book:

“Making space to hear, to know, and to care for people “not in our tribe” may be one of the most urgent and transformative things we could be doing.  In this bitterly divided era in American society and politics, may we who seek to be Jesus-followers live out our vocation as reconcilers and peacemakers with love and justice. A Language of Healing could be just the right practical help for our next steps at this important time.”

If you would like to read the book, it can be found online here.
