Love Is the Resistance: Learn to Disagree, Resolve the Conflicts You've Been Avoiding, and Create Real Change Paperback -

From the rear cover

Polarizing narratives. Echo chambers. Calls to resist.

What if there's a better way?

Are you tired of engaging in fruitless arguments or biting your tongue? Do you long for greater compassion and understanding with your friends, family members, coworkers, and neighbors? When love becomes our habitual reaction to the conflicts and divisions in our lives, we discover the resistance we need to stay true to our convictions without sacrificing our relationships.

Love Is the Resistance will help you gain the confidence to communicate and connect with others, stop avoiding necessary tension, and resolve your internal and external conflicts.
