The Converge @St. Francis Ministry invites you to a 4-week book club. We will be reading:
Building a Bridge by James Martin, S.J.
Jesuit priest and NYT bestselling author James Martin issues an impassioned plea for Catholic leaders to relate to their LGBT flock in a new way, one characterized by compassion and openness. In this inspiring book, Father Martin turns to three virtues from the Catechism of the Catholic Church—“respect, compassion, and sensitivity”—as a model for how Catholic leadership and LGBT Catholics can move together on a “two-way bridge” toward reconciliation and love.
This groundbreaking new book includes spiritual and biblical resources for LGBT people and their families, friends, and allies. Building a Bridge is a compassionate book desperately needed in today’s climate of divisiveness.
