A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER How We Learn to Be Brave is an inspirational guide to the key junctures in life that, if navigated with faith and discernment, pave the way for us to become our most courageous selves, by the bishop of the famed Episcopal Diocese of Washington, D.C.On January 21, 2025, many Americans were introduced to Bishop Mariann Budde thanks to what The New York Times called "an extraordinary act of public resistance." During her prayer service for Donald J. Trump's second inauguration, Bishop Budde addressed the president directly, imploring him "to have mercy on the people in our country who are scared now," from those who are part of the LGBTQ+ community to immigrants and refugees. But for Bishop Budde, this moment was the culmination of a lifetime spent thinking about those pivot points when we're called on to push past our fears and act with strength. With How We Learn to Be Brave, she teaches us that being brave is not a singular occurrence; it's a journey that we can choose to undertake every day. Here, Bishop Budde explores the full range of decisive moments, from the most visible and dramatic (the decision to go), to the internal and personal (the decision to stay), to brave choices made with an eye toward the future (the decision to start), those born of suffering (the decision to accept that which we did not choose), and those that come unexpectedly (the decision to step up to the plate). Drawing on examples ranging from Harry Potter to the Gospel According to Luke, she seamlessly weaves together personal experiences with stories from scripture, history, and pop culture to underscore both the universality of these moments and the particular call each one of us must heed when they arrive. With Bishop Budde's wisdom, readers will learn to live and to respond according to their true beliefs and in ways that align with their best selves. How We Learn to Be Brave will provide much-needed fortitude and insight to anyone searching for answers in uncertain times.

“As you told the nation yesterday, you have felt the providential hand of a loving God. In the name of our God, I ask you to have mercy upon the people in our country who are scared now.”At an ominous moment in American history, Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde’s sermon at the National Cathedral in Washington, DC following President Trump’s second inauguration was a rare moment of moral clarity. Growing out of the most fundamental principles of Christian ethics, Bishop Budde’s address stands as a calm but resonant call for compassion in an increasingly vicious and punitive political culture.

Lær å bli modig med Mariann Edgar Budde – biskopen som ble verdenskjent da hun konfronterte president Donald J. Trump og ba ham vise nåde. Gjennom personlige historier og eksempler fra både evangeliene og populærkulturen, viser Budde at å være modig ikke er en medfødt egenskap, men et bevisst valg man tar hver dag. Med praktiske råd, innsiktsfulle refleksjoner og erfaringer fra et langt presteliv, deler hun verktøyene som trengs for å følge ens egen indre overbevisning, også når det gjelder som mest. Boken inneholder et nyskrevet forord av Budde og den berømte prekenen hun holdt 21. januar 2025 i Washington National Cathedral. Etterord av biskop Sunniva Gylver.

Det här är en bok för dig som längtar efter att leva i en djupare gemenskap med Gud, och som söker en väg som både bär och utmanar.Biskop Mariann skriver med ödmjukhet och tydlighet vilket gör hennes texter både pastoralt inkännande och profetiskt utmanande. Hennes budskap är en påminnelse om att evangeliet inte bara handlar om att tro, utan också om att älska – i tanke, ord och handling. – Ur biskop Karin Johannessons förord.
