About this book
Belonging matters now more than ever. Indeed, belonging is the question of this generation. Like the air we breathe, belonging is also a matter of life and death.
In an age of self-help strategies and shiny lives, the contributors to this volume are grounded in the depths of lived experience. Contextual, story-driven, and representing a global network of thought leaders, each chapter equips individuals and communities to take the next step. Pathways to Belonging points the way to the expansive, flourishing life for which we yearn.
Praise for this book
“These authors are glorious in their diversity and enriching in the texture of their illustrative power. The result is a medium that communicates a subtle yet timely message: we do not know who we each are apart unless we attend to who we all are together.”
Samuel Wells, vicar, St Martin-in-the-Fields
Jill Duffield, senior pastor, First Presbyterian Church, Greensboro, North Carolina
“Pathways to Belonging offers an anecdotal and academic approach to exploring how we might better embrace one another. The varied perspectives provide a complex and compelling bricolage of what it looks like to form communities where everyone has a place prepared for them.”
Stephen Breck Reid, vice provost for faculty diversity and belonging, Baylor University
“[With] the opening invitation and a final meditation framing the movement of belonging and using the metaphors of the valley of dry bones and the miracle of Pentecost, Pathways to Belonging . . . is an attempt to reclaim the air we breathe—belonging. Structure and the Spirit stand as resources for sustaining cultures of belonging. Like the stations of the cross for a Jerusalem pilgrim, Pathways to Belonging presents stations of the cross on the way to belonging.”
