Description

Gregory Boyle, a beloved Jesuit priest and author, returns with a powerful call to witness the transformative power of tenderness. Drawing on his lifetime of experience counselling gang members in Los Angeles, Boyle shares the story of Homeboy Industries, a community that has transformed thousands of lives through its work.

Through the stories of individuals like Saul and Abel, who have overcome incredible adversity to find hope and tenderness, Boyle shows how those at Homeboy Industries fight despair and remain generous, hopeful, and tender. This book is a testament to the enduring power of human connection and the potential for transformation in the face of adversity.
