  • Have a Little Faith by Mitch Albom
    have a little faith by Mitch Albom READING GROUP GUIDE In his first nonfiction work since the publication of his international bestseller Tuesdays with Morrie, Mitch Albom turns his keen observational eye and journalistic gifts toward one of the world’s most complex, yet universal, subjects. In Have a Little Faith, Albom explores the unifying power of religion as he plumbs the lives and callings of two “men of the cloth”—Albom’s childhood rabbi Albert Lewis (“the Reb”), who asks Albom to write and deliver his eulogy upon his demise; and Henry Covington, a Detroit inner-city pastor struggling to keep his mostly impoverished and disenfranchised congregation together as their dilapidated church crumbles around them. At the same time, Have a Little Faith is the deeply personal story of Albom’s journey of faith, as he examines why he strayed from his Jewish roots and, through the inspiration of the Reb and Pastor Henry, how he comes to find his way home once more. As a result, this is a book filled with many fascinating themes, such as the power of resilience in the face of adversity, the true meaning of faith, and how belief can lift us in surprising ways. The below questions are designed to help guide your reading group’s discussion of this thought-provoking and uplifting book. QUESTIONS FOR DISCUSSION 1. Have a Little Faith asks, “What if our beliefs were not what divided us, but what pulled us together?” How would you begin to answer this question? Which of the world’s ills could be healed, what wrongs could be made right, if religion was more of a unifying force? 2.
