Book
How we learn to be brave : decisive moments in life and faith / Mariann Edgar Budde, Episcopal Bishop of Washington.
"In recent years, Bishop Mariann Budde has become known for offering the right words at the right time, creating moments of healing amid turmoil. With How We Learn to Be Brave, she teaches readers to respond with clarity and grace even in the toughest times. Being brave is not a singular occurrence; it's a journey that we can choose to undertake every day. The decisive moments in life are those pivot points when we're called upon to push past our fears and act with strength. Drawing on examples ranging from Harry Potter to the Gospel According to Luke, Bishop Budde seamlessly weaves together personal experiences with stories from scripture, history, and pop culture to underscore both the universality of these moments and the particular call each one of us must heed when they arrive."-- Provided by publisher.
