Our Better Angel Book - Hard Cover

NOT FOR RESALE. Habitat CEO Jonathan Reckford has seen time and again the powerful benefits that arise when people from all walks of life work together to help one another. In his new book, Our Better Angels: Seven Simple Virtues That Will Change Your Life and the World, he shares stories of Habitat volunteers and homeowners. These individuals embody seven timeless virtues — kindness, community, empowerment, joy, respect, generosity and service — and their stories show how we all can work to improve the quality of our own lives as well as the lives of those around us. These stories illustrate how virtues become values, how cooperation becomes connection, and how even the smallest act of compassion can encourage actions that transform the world around us. Embrace with passion the calling of our better angels to change the way we take care of ourselves, our families, our communities and the world!
