Praise for this book

"John's insight, heart and soul speaks to all people. His wisdom moves all of us to act from our better angels"
--Rabbi Mark Borovitz

"John's writing speaks to anyone with a brain and a compassionate heart. As a Jew, I would not have expected to be so pulled in by the words of a Christian pastor, but I find his blog posts and previous books to be both powerful and spot on. I am profoundly moved by his writing."
--Barbara Berkley

"There is one voice that speaks for the collective minds and hearts of us that beat for justice, equality, mercy, love and kindness. John's blog holds us virtually and sometimes literally...together! We do not despair because John's writings are a beacon of hope in the times we live in."
--Laurie Struck

"Thought-provoking and challenging the status quo, John Pavlovitz' essays never fails to stretch my mind. I challenge you to read his writings and be idle."
--NJ Mvondo, founder of Multiculturalism Rocks!

"John Pavlovitz's words soothe my soul and help me to not feel so alone! He gives voice to thoughts and feelings that I felt no one shared until I came across his writings. He speaks the words I think and feel!"
--Lisa Huesman

"I'm thankful for John's words because they help me feel that I'm not alone. His voice speaks for those of us in the 'Humane Middle' who so many times feel lost in the cruelty of this world. I hope he will keep saying things that need to be said. We need to hear them."
--Trena B.

"John was a lifeline after the shock of the 2016 election. His grief was my grief, his rage my rage. His was a companion in the desert. John was a clear, resonating voice of the Resistance when it was still just a whisper."
--Lance Harshbarger

"John Pavlovitz tells it like it is--and as it should be. He cares more, advocates more, and nurtures more than any one person should be able to. Whether reading his social media posts or meditating on his reflections, I am uplifted and challenged to be a better human."
--Carol Hawley

"We are always listening for John's clear and courageous voice rising above the noise of our times. He reminds us of what it truly means--and what it takes--to love one another."
--Patricia and Ron Higgins

"John is a gifted writer, he has the ability to put into words what is in so many of our hearts. His blog has been a lifesaver in these troubling times, I highly recommend that you read all of his books."
--Kellie Rorrer
