Is faith still relevant in today’s world? Amid polarization, war, a refugee crisis, a pandemic and environmental devastation, it’s easy to feel that faith no longer has a role to play. This book is evidence that nothing could be further from the truth. As you listen to voices from a range of religious traditions, you will see that faith – and the actions that arise from it – can mend the world.
To have hope is to have faith. In these dark and divisive times, too many of us have become immobilized by cynicism or impotence. Karen Hamilton talks to more than a dozen thoughtfully engaged visionary voices who eloquently demonstrate that in dialogue and action there is always hope.
— Hana Gartner, Member of the Order of Canada, award-winning CBC journalist and former host of The Fifth Estate
The stories in this book, compiled by The Rev. Dr. Karen Hamilton, are from interviews with people of different faiths who have acted courageously for justice. They are powerful and inspiring and proclaim the hope our faith gives us. People in our parishes, and many others, are struggling to know how God is calling us to respond to the injustices in our day. I wholeheartedly recommend this book.
— Most Rev. Ronald Fabbro, CSB, Bishop of London, Ontario
