Drum handles a challenging subject with grace and truth. I found his chapters that navigate the strength of republican and democrat positions particularly well done. As a friend of Dave, I can attest to Dave walking the walk of this book-- he is a peacemaker who bridges relationships and political divides adeptly.

Worth Reading!
This book looks at how we might interact with each other, given the current drastic divide between Democrats and Republicans. The model of “love your neighbor “ has rarely been so well described. Recommend
