Love over Fear

Love over Fear: Facing Monsters, Befriending Enemies, and Healing Our Polarized World by Dan White Jr. offers a compelling guide to conquering fear with love in an age of polarization. The book is a collection of stories of those who changed hearts and minds through radical love, and it teaches how to practice disarming compassion and discover the disruptive power of showing affection to monsters.

Author Dan White Jr. is a pastor, author, and speaker who has worked with churches and non-profits for over two decades. He is also the author of Subterranean: Why the Future of the Church is Rootedness.

Love over Fear challenges readers to examine their own biases and assumptions about people who are different from them. White argues that fear is the root of many conflicts and divisions in our society, and that love is the only way to overcome it. He shares stories from his own journey of learning to love people across various lines of difference, such as race, religion, politics, and sexuality. He also offers practical steps and exercises to help the reader cultivate a posture of love and empathy towards others.
