tent in which his congregation can pray. It follows the struggles Lewis endures as a medical error temporarily robs him of his ability to communicate, and his impending death brings him face to face with his concept of heaven.
And it concludes, as you might expect, with the eulogy I never wanted to write, a eulogy I never wanted to deliver, because it meant my teacher was gone.
But while he was here, through this most unlikely journey—one that bounced me between two worlds, between my childhood home and where I live now, between the suburbs of New Jersey and the inner city of Detroit, between a synagogue and a church, between white and black, between rich and poor, between thinking faith is something that divides people to realizing it may be the single biggest thing we humans have in common—through all that, I was able to cra; what I hope were the right farewell words to a special man of God. And to reintroduce myself to what it means to believe in something bigger than me, bigger than all of us.
I don’t know about you, but personally that was a big test. ;e journey tested my preconceived notions of faith, tested my idea of what a “man of God” should look like and what a church should look like, tested my comfort zone, tested lots of prejudices.
In the end, however, I learned more than I ever imagined about those people who stand on the pulpit each week, who they really are, what moves them, what scares them and how much they are really like us, even if we feel they are better than us.
Do you believe in anything? I had to ask myself that in Have a Little Faith. And by the end, I found that I believe in more than I
thought. Perhaps you will, too.
I hope you like this small new book,
and ;nd it inspiring for you and those you love. I know that writing it changed my life.
Thank you to all who have embraced my books and stories. C
