Reverend Nathan C. Walker Pens New Book, CULTIVATING EMPATHY

In this emotionally honest and personal exploration of conflict, the Reverend Nathan C. Walker introduces a creative and compassionate way to develop empathetic responses. He explores the concept of the moral imagination-a way we can project ourselves in a conflict and understand all perspectives, aware that understanding need not imply agreement.

Walker presents a series of engaging and thought-provoking vignettes, where he endeavors to find connection with skinheads, murderers, homophobic preachers, privileged 1-percenters, and Monsanto executives. As he experiments with this approach, he shows a model that can help us all nurture greater empathy for those we have previously held in contempt.
