Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde is no stranger to bravery in the face of bullies. In this adaptation of her New York Times bestselling How We Learn to Be Brave: Decisive Moments in Life and Faith, Bishop Budde and acclaimed novelist Bryan Bliss share lessons in how to be brave in life’s hardest moments.

The decisive moments in life — even in the life of a young person — are those pivot points when we’re called on to push past our fears and act courageously in the face of injustice and bullying. In We Can Be Brave, Budde shows readers examples of how to respond even in the toughest times. Bravery is not a singular occurrence; it’s a journey that we can choose to undertake every day and it begins when we’re young.

Budde is the bishop and spiritual leader of the Episcopal Diocese of Washington, DC, and the Washington National Cathedral. She will be in conversation with Robert P. Jones, the president and founder of Public Religion Research Institute (PRRI) and a New York Times bestselling author. His most recent book is The Hidden Roots of White Supremacy and the Path to a Shared American Future.
