This is less a biography more a journal detailing the relationship between one person with Mister Rogers. Mister Rogers was an ordained minister. He really live the quote "Tell the gospel. If necessary, use words." Never did Mister Rogers preach with words of hail and brimstone ... his way of life spoke volumes. I loved the legend of someone stealing his car. Is it true? Mister Rogers left some of his signature puppets in the backseat and the thief returned the car with a note say "I'm sorry. I wouldn't have stolen it if it was YOUR car." The club nor the lojack will stop people from stealing cars. Connecting with someone in such a profound level will. Connection: it can change the world I've been looking for small ways to integrate peace and comfort into my life. As well as how to leave people better than I found them. It sounds like an easy task, but with so much turmoil and hate in the world - it's more than easy to let that take over your thoughts - or even to just ignore it and only focus on yourself. One of the ideas mentioned in this book is to realize everyone is your neighbor, everyone is special, and there is no one else like you or like your neighbor and there never will be again. I think that's a lovely sentiment. One of the statements they make over and over in this book is - once you realize that everyone is your neighbor, you can either accuse them or advocate for them - and wouldn't be beautiful if everyone advocated for one other. I just find that so comforting. In a world in which we are quick to judge and focused so much on ourselves - it's nice to stop and consider how are actions affect those around us. What an impact we could have on others if we decided to love, acknowledge and yes, advocate for one another. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

It shows us a man who, to paraphrase the words of St. Francis of Assisi, "preached the gospel at all times; when necessary he used words. "Tom Brokaw of NBC Nightly News once said of the American icon Fred Rogers, "Mister Rogers was an ordained minister, but he never talked about God on his program. He didn't need to. "Eight years before his death, Fred Rogers met author, educator, and speaker Amy Hollingsworth. What started as a television interview turned into a wonderful friendship spanning dozens of letters detailing the driving force behind this gentle man of extraordinary influence? Educator? Philosopher? Psychologist? Minister? Here is an intimate portrait of the real Mister Rogers. The Simple Faith of Mr. Rogers focuses on Mr. Rogers' spiritual legacy, but it is much more than that. It shows us a man who, to paraphrase the words of St. Francis of Assisi, "preached the gospel at all times; when necessary he used words.". No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
