Race and Prayer: Collected Voices, Many Dreams

Rating:
Summary: Impressive and inspiring poems, prayers, and prose
Review: Collaboratively compiled by Malcom Boyd (Episcopal priest and poet/writer in residence at the Cathedral Center of St. Paul, Los Angeles) and Chester Talon (Bishop Suffragan of the Episcopal Diocese of Los Angeles), Race And Prayer: Collected Voices, Many Dreams consists of dealing with the transformation of anger and impressive and inspiring poems, prayers, and prose frustration to a condition of reconciliation and healing. Enhanced with twelve cartoons by Los Angeles times editorial cartoonist Paul Conrad, Race And Prayer is organized into five sections (Suffering and Anger; Prejudice and Hatred; Diversity; Reconciliation and Healing; Growth in Understanding and Sharing). Race And Prayer is important and highly recommended reading for all Christians regardless of denominational affiliation or background.
