Each Other's Angels: Practicing Personalism in the Catholic Worker Tradition introduces readers to author Toni Flynn's vision of justice and compassion, informed by the Scriptures and inspired by the Catholic Worker Movement of Dorothy Day and Peter Maurin. Part memoir and part tribute to various people she encountered on the margins of society, this book shows readers how seemingly insignificant and ineffectual efforts to be an angel to others can turn out to be signs of God's grace. Following Jesus, going to places of cultural darkness and brokenness, Toni inevitably takes us through troubling and troublesome terrain--the desert, homeless encampments, jails and prisons, and seedy hotels. As you will see, Toni fearlessly exposes her flaws while forging a conduit of compassion that connects her to the wounded human condition and allows her--and her readers--to hope for a better world where everyone is tended to and appreciated. ""Toni Flynn graces us with stories from her life as a peace activist, mother, Catholic Worker volunteer, and friend to the poor and imprisoned. Christ is squarely in the midst of these tender, piercing essays from a life lived fully, deeply, richly."" --Heather King, Author, Public Speaker, NPR Contributor ""Without a hint of piety or self-congratulation, Flynn shows us what it's like to live in the imitation of Christ. A beautiful book with the power to change lives."" --Paula Huston, Author, Benedictine Oblate ""Flynn has eyes that see, ears that hear, and words that open our inner senses to the lives of others, especially people like Opal in jail, the Beggar Bowl Woman in the desert, Sister Louise who shines, Michael on his soap box, and the military police officer who loosens handcuffs. Grace is everywhere in these pages. Blessed is the writer who brings otherwise overlooked souls into our own hearts."" --James W. Douglass, Author, Catholic Worker, Christian Theologian ""This is indeed a book that will invite the stony hearted to crack open, and inspire 'bleeding hearts' everywhere to carry on because, like all exceptional books of great depth, this one is written in blood."" --Jeff Dietrich, Author, Editor of the Catholic Agitator Toni Flynn resides on the California Central Coast in close proximity to Beatitude House and the Monastery of the Risen Christ. In addition to this current publication, Toni's first book, Finding My Way: A Journey Along the Rim of the Catholic Worker Movement was reprinted in 2015 by Wipf and Stock Publishers.
