For thousands of years, scientists, philosophers, and self-help gurus have wrestled with one of the basic conundrums of human life: Why do we do the things we do? Or, rather, why do we so often not do the things we want to do? In You're a Miracle (and a Pain in the Ass), McHargue addresses these issues. We like to think we’re in control of our thoughts and decisions, he writes, but science has shown that a host of competing impulses, emotions, and environmental factors are at play in every action we undertake.

Mike has done it again. This book exemplifies the extraordinary way that Mike is able to combine his intelligent analyses with deeply personal and vulnerable storytelling. So it feels like a very engaging class where you learn a ton while also feeling like a friend sharing their deepest feelings and stories with you in a late night conversation. He gives us ways to better understand our minds, bodies, and emotions and paths to greater wholeness while never making you feel judged for deficits in any of these areas or like it’s so simple to do if only you followed his seven steps that all start with the letter A. Also, I love audiobooks in general, but I really love him as a narrator as well. Couldn’t possibly recommend this any higher than I do.

Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 56
A progressive Christian parenting book with a social-justice orientation. How do we build a better world? One key way, says Cindy Wang Brandt, is by learning to raise our children with justice, mercy, and kindness. In Parenting Forward Brandt equips Christian parents to model a way of following Jesus that has an outward focus, putting priority on loving others, avoiding judgment, and helping those in need. She shows how parents must work on dismantling their own racial, cultural, gender, economic, and religious biases in order to avoid passing them on to their children.

Excellent resource for parents
Revisado: 01-03-20
I am so thankful for Cindy’s voice in this area. As a therapist who specializes in working with children, I wholeheartedly recommend this book to anyone trying to parent their children in ways that respect their value as fellow people instead of sub-humans that should obey or be seen and not heard. Also having gone through a similar faith shift and intentionally changing our parenting philosophy from the authoritarian styles of our parents, I regularly found myself challenged in ways my parenting practices still don’t align with my beliefs. This book is well worth your time.

Austin Channing Brown’s first encounter with a racialized America came at age seven, when she discovered her parents named her Austin to deceive future employers into thinking she was a white man. Growing up in majority-white schools and churches, Austin writes, “I had to learn what it means to love blackness,” a journey that led to a lifetime spent navigating America’s racial divide as a writer, speaker, and expert helping organizations practice genuine inclusion.

Definitely a Must Read
Revisado: 08-06-18
This book was so powerful, and Austin's voice is so desperately needed during this time when it feels like we are moving backwards in race relations. I highly recommend this book, particularly as a white male recommending it to other white people who want to increase their racial awareness and work to better understand and deconstruct your white privilege. We need more voices like Austin's.
