"Love is the Way" by Bishop Michael Curry is a book advocating that love is the only path to overcome societal challenges like racism, poverty, and division, urging readers to actively practice love in their daily lives, drawing heavily on his personal experiences and faith to demonstrate how love can be a transformative force in a troubled world; it gained significant attention after his widely acclaimed sermon on love at Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's royal wedding.

"The Cost of Discipleship" by Dietrich Bonhoeffer is a theological work that explores the true meaning of Christian discipleship, arguing that genuine following of Jesus Christ requires a significant personal sacrifice and commitment, contrasting a "cheap grace" (easy forgiveness without life change) with a "costly grace" which demands radical transformation and obedience to Jesus' teachings, even in the face of opposition and persecution; essentially, it emphasizes that being a true disciple involves actively living out one's faith through concrete actions and ethical conduct in the world. 

“Jesus for President" is a book by Shane Claiborne and Chris Haw that argues for a radical reinterpretation of Christian faith in the political sphere, essentially proposing that the teachings of Jesus should be the guiding principle for political action, advocating for social justice and challenging the idea of relying solely on traditional political parties or systems to enact change, essentially "voting" for Jesus' values rather than a specific candidate in an election; it encourages Christians to actively engage in politics with a focus on love, compassion, and radical nonviolence, much like Jesus' actions in the Bible.
