Grace Will Lead Us Home: The Charleston Church Massacre and the Hard, Inspiring Journey to Forgiveness

Ongoing. For most citizens, the tragedy at Emmanuel AME Church in Charleston, South Carolina in 2015 was one more in a series of violent episodes in recent years. Thanks to a finely written book by Jennifer Berry Hawes, titled, Grace Will Lead Us Home: The Charleston Church Massacre and the Hard, Inspiring Journey to Forgiveness, interested readers can understand the context and aftermath more thoroughly. The survivors and their families have stories that Hawes tells with great skill, and there are issues with Mother Emanuel church that I didn’t know about until I read this book. Fans of Charleston will appreciate the ways in which this book tells the story of how this fine community has engaged in a long healing process.
