Letters from the Farm by Becca Stevens, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

Becca Stevens, best-selling author, high-profile social activist and one of the premiere preachers in the U. S., extolls the power of love in this new collection of essays intended for everyone from church leaders to seekers.“Love is my grounding," says Becca Stevens. “It provides the axioms that inform andgovern what I do. First is that love is the most powerful source for social change in theworld. Second is that love heals. I’m not called to change the world. I am called to love it."“All spiritual paths can be walked more gracefully by avoiding the pitfall ofdisillusionment and not getting distracted by the bright lights of ego that haveled countless priests far afield. Following simple road signs like courage, humility, forgiveness, compassion, and faithfulness that others have put at the crossroads for mehas made the work possible and left me grateful. I want to pass along through theseletters a tradition of a priesthood that is grounded in the idea that love heals and healingis the central-most sacrament of the church."For seminarians, priests, and pastors across denominational lines, plus readers ofStevens’ earlier works and supporters of Thistle Farms and Magdalene projects. | Letters from the Farm by Becca Stevens, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
