Infos

Way of Love invites readers to discover the Christian faith as a school that forms people in the practices of love. Love is the heart of Christian life because believers are called to follow in the footsteps of the God who is love. While attending to Scripture and the lives of saints and strugglers, Wirzba shows why love is hard, but also why it is necessary for the healing of our communities and world. Way of Love is unique because it shows that love is both a practice and the key to understanding what Christian teaching is fundamentally about, and why it matters for our daily lives. In a time when an increasing number of people see religion as irrelevant and Christian faith as mired in rancor and hate, Wirzba challenges Christians to a better way that prioritizes care and compassion for people and for the whole of creation.
