Description
Hardcover book by Lerita Coleman Brown. 213 pages. This spiritual memoir invites readers to explore the life and teachings of Howard Thurman, a civil rights leader who championed silence, contemplation, and nonviolence as powerful dimensions of social change. Through reflection questions and spiritual practices, Dr. Lerita Coleman Brown guides us into an apprenticeship with Thurman's mystical spirituality. We learn from Thurman's experiences in the Jim Crow South, his encounters with Quakers and Mahatma Gandhi, and his sense of being guided by the Spirit. Decades after their deaths, sages like Howard Thurman offer spiritual kinship and guidance for our contemporary life.
