Would love to add to your wonderful list! Cherished Belonging: The healing power of love in divided times by Gregory Boyle. One of the most beautiful/challenging books I’ve read in a very long time. Bonus! If you listen to the audiobook read by Father Boyle.
Two unwavering principles held at Homeboy Industries were the following:
1) Everyone is unshakably good (no exceptions)
and
2) We belong to each other (no exceptions).
“Now, do I think all our vexing and complex social dilemmas would disappear if we embraced these two notions?”
Hi Julia, Thanks so much for weighing in with this recommendation! I’ve been very inspired by Greg Boyle’s work and have yet to read this new one - adding to list!

I paused, then continued, “Yes, I do.”
