I had the opportunity to read an advanced copy of Mitch’s Albom’s forthcoming book, HAVE A LITTLE FAITH. It’s awesome and eye-opening. The question Albom asks is: “What if faith wasn’t what divided us, but what brought us together?” In a world where holier-than-thou attitudes prevail, it seems like all of our problems would be solved if only we could just say, “Hey, I have faith, you have faith…however we get there doesn’t matter. What matters is that we both BELIEVE.”
I highly recommend this book – I think its my favorite of Albom’s thus far. You can pre-order online – I think the book comes out in stores at the end of September. And if you ever get the chance to hear Mitch Albom speak…GO! He’s really gifted with words.
If you like to “think” about a book long after you’re finished reading it, this is the book for you.
Back again. Just wanted to let you – and your readers know – that you can get book excerpts for HAVE A LITTLE FAITH on Mitch Albom’s website at http://www.mitchalbom.com.
There are also really cool discussions based on the book, a video and all sorts of other info.
Can’t wait for the book to come out so we can all discuss it!
