(0 Reviews)

"Have a Little Faith" by Mitch Albom explores the impact and significance of language in conveying faith and beliefs. Through his encounters with two men of differing backgrounds—a rabbi and a pastor—Albom delves into how their words inspire hope, comfort, and community. Language, in this context, acts as a bridge that connects people to their spirituality and to one another, highlighting how powerful expressions of faith can resonate through discussions and teachings.

The book emphasizes that language not only reflects personal beliefs but also shapes a person's understanding of life and the world. Albom illustrates this through stories and reflections that show how communication fosters compassion and understanding. By examining these interactions, he illustrates that the power of language can lead to transformative experiences, encouraging readers to appreciate the profound effects that words can have in their quest for meaning and connection.

People pontificate, "Suicide is selfishness." Career churchmen like Pater go a step further and call in a cowardly assault on the living. Oafs argue this specious line for varying reason: to evade fingers of blame, to impress one's audience with one's mental fiber, to vent anger, or just because one lacks the necessary suffering to sympathize. Cowardice is nothing to do with it - suicide takes considerable courage. Japanese have the right idea. No, what's selfish is to demand another to endure an intolerable existence, just to spare families, friends, and enemies a bit of soul-searching.
