Drawing from raw, vulnerable, and brave coming-of-age stories, she invites us into her ministry to ‘Love. Period.’ This book is radical, just, and joyous. Just like Middle Church. Just like Jacqui Lewis.

With this book, Jacqui Lewis made me see the world in a different way—as a place where we can live our lives fully, tell our stories honestly, and love one another fiercely.

Embrace Fierce Love:

A healing antidote to our divisive culture, full of evocative storytelling, spiritual wisdom, and psychological insight—by the first female, Black senior minister at the historic Collegiate Churches of New York.

We are living in what I call “hot mess times”: a world divided by politics, race, intolerance, fear, and rancor. But my experiences—of of being a woman in a traditionally male domain, of being in an interracial marriage, of making peace with childhood abuse—demonstrates that our human capacity for empathy, compassion, and forgiveness is the key to reversing these ugly trends.

Inspired by the Ubuntu philosophy “I am who I am because we are who we are” and explained through stories from my own life and those of my mentors and inspirations, in this book I detail the nine daily practices necessary for transforming ourselves, our communities, and our world at large. From learning to put down our emotional baggage to speaking truth to power to resisting joyfully, gaining a renewed sense of the power well all have to create caring communities; to stand up for the vulnerable; and to change our shared story from one of anxiety, anger, and divisiveness to one of mindfulness, compassion, and unity.
