Mercy Matters: Opening Yourself to the Life-Changing Gift - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

"Wherever there are Christians, everyone should find an oasis of mercy." --Pope Francis

Whether dealing with adoption, sobriety, bullying, the Boston Marathon bombing, or friendship with a Jehovah's Witness, Mathew Schmalz's own life serves as the backdrop for his reflections on the complex nature of mercy--how we give it, and how we receive it. From a home for lepers in India to a halfway house in the Bronx, the author probes his experiences to reveal mercy as a virtue that doesn't necessarily come easily, but is infinitely rewarding.

Discussion and reflection questions at the end of each chapter allow you to dig deeper into your own ideas about mercy, what it looks like in your life, and how to move toward a more merciful existence. Perfect for individual or group study.
