Blessing the World: What Can Save Us Now

Blessing the World: What Can Save Us Now by Parker, Rebecca Ann. Paperback edition. ISBN: 9781558965157.

Rebecca Ann Parker is now the president of Starr King - the Unitarian Universalist seminary at Berkeley. The collection of essays in this volume touch on a number of different issues. They are thought provoking and many of them heart wrenching. I found myself crying as I read many of the essays. Yet, as the title of the collection suggests, ultimately, the reader comes away with hope and, at least for me, a renewed dedication to engage in making the world a blessed place that is open and welcoming to all people. This is simply a remarkable set of essays and anyone who is concerned with liberal religion, diversity, or issues of social justice needs to read this volume. ( Amazon customer)
