Description

A healing antidote to our divisive culture, full of evocative storytelling, spiritual wisdom, and nine essential daily practices - by the first female, Black senior minister at the historic Collegiate Churches of New York.

Fierce Love teaches us that with spiritual faith we can transcend the darkest moments and come through stronger.” (Gabrielle Bernstein, number one New York Times best-selling author of The Universe Has Your Back)

We are living in a world divided. Race and ethnicity, caste and color, gender and sexuality, class and education, religion and political party have all become demographic labels that reduce our differences to simplistic categories in which “we” are vehemently against “them”. But Rev. Dr. Jacqui Lewis’ own experience - of being the first female and first Black minister in her church’s history, of being in an interracial marriage, and of making peace with childhood abuse - illustrates that our human capacity for empathy and forgiveness is the key to reversing these ugly trends.

Inspired by the tenets of ubuntu - the Zulu philosophy that we are each impacted by the circumstances that impact those around us, and that the world won’t get better until we all get better - Fierce Love lays out the nine daily practices for breaking through tribalism and engineering the change we seek. From downsizing our emotional baggage to speaking truth to power to fueling our activism with joy, it demonstrates the power of small, morally courageous steps to heal our own lives, our posse, and our larger communities. Sharing stories that trace her personal reckoning with racism as well as the arc of her journey to an inclusive and service-driven faith, Dr. Lewis shows that kindness, compassion, and inclusive thinking are muscles that can be exercised and strengthened. With the goal of mending our inextricable human connection, Fierce Love is a manifesto for all generations: a bighearted, healing antidote to our rancorous culture.

Ce que les critiques en disent

“A powerful antidote to the tribalism that is wrecking our country and poisoning our souls, Fierce Love is a welcome moral North Star for readers everywhere.” (Van Jones, New York Times best-selling author of Beyond the Messy Truth and CNN political contributor)

“With this book, Jacqui Lewis made me see the world in a different way - as a place where we can live our lives fully, tell our stories honestly, and love one another fiercely.” (Paul Tough, New York Times best-selling author of How Children Succeed)

“I have never felt at home in any church as I have in Middle Church - a vibrant, multiracial, multicultural community in the heart of New York City. Now Rev. Dr. Jacqui Lewis gives us her ingredients to building a beloved community with fierce love. Drawing from raw, vulnerable, and brave coming-of-age stories, she invites us into her ministry to ‘Love. Period.’ This book is radical, just, and joyous. Just like Middle Church. Just like Jacqui Lewis.” (Valarie Kaur, author of See No Stranger: A Memoir and Manifesto of Revolutionary Love)
