Falling Upward by Richard Rohr

hopeful inspiring reflective fast-paced

4.0

I really like RR’s writing, and am looking forward to reading more by him. This book was written in 2011 so it doesn’t quite hold up as it used to. I think if this book was written for women, it would be very different (it’s clearly geared towards men- at one point he even said “women need to find their own heroes to look up to!”) I really love his gentleness and broad thinking, but I find some of the ways he talks about gender, younger folks, are dated now (though they weren’t at the time. Still - I’d highly recommend this book to anyone wanting to go further in their faith, feeling stuck, or who has been through multiple crises.
