About the BookIn a culture where constant offense and polarization dominate so many interactions, here is good news about a more productive way to disagree: God desires for us to become better at loving others . . . not better at debating.
Grace in the Gray helps us see the grace and good that’s often hidden by our own limited perspectives and assumptions. Through a collection of personal stories and biblical insights, Mike Donehey reveals a four-stage process to help you 1. subjectify those you’ve objectified 2. empathize with those you’ve vilified 3. humanize those you’ve deified 4. see why your posture is as essential as your position In relationships, professional settings, and social situations, discover how to focus on the person standing before you more than the argument set against you. Doing so gives you the rare ability to face any conflict with better questions, kindness, and the calming posture of curiosity. It all begins by learning to listen and lead with the most transformative substance the universe has ever known . . . God’s love. |
