Big Love

WHAT IS LOVE INVITING YOU TO DO RIGHT NOW? That’s the question Scott Stabile asks himself more than any other these days. When he finds himself mired in self-loathing, arguing with a loved one, or ready to pounce on an insulting online comment, this question invites answers from a generous heart rather than a fearful mind and leads to a much more peaceful way of being. Couldn’t we all use a little more peace? It’s no easy thing to live in a world with so much pain and suffering, and Scott has had his share of heartbreak. His parents were murdered when he was fourteen, his brother died from a heroin overdose, and Scott had to navigate years of shame around his sexuality. In Big Love, his insightful, refreshingly honest, and deeply relatable collection of essays, Scott relates these profound experiences, as well as everyday struggles and triumphs, in ways that are universally applicable, uplifting, and laugh-out-loud funny. Whether he writes about silencing shame, rebounding from failure, being with grief, or befriending your fears, his words will make you laugh, cry, and nod your head vigorously. Most importantly, they’ll remind you that love is a choice — the choice that makes real transformation possible in your life and our world.
