"In the end, all great spirituality is about what to do with our pain. We hesitate to eradicate the pain, since it is such a revered teacher. It re-members us. Our wounds jostle from us what is false and leave us only with a yearning for the authentically poetic. From there to here. Holiness is a contact sport, busting us open into some new, unfettered place. We are hesitant, then, not to call it God. Remarkable, incredible, and ... all the other '-ables.' ”

Forgive Everyone Everything by Gregory Boyle reminds us, page by page, that we can always choose to be more expansive, more loving, and more compassionate. Boyle exemplifies the heart of God occasionally through spiritual wisdom learned from folks like Mother Theresa and Marcus Borg but most often through the spiritual wisdom learned from the homies he lives and works among at Homeboy Industries in East Los Angeles.
