The Little Love That Could: Stories of Tenacious Love, Underdogs, and Ragamuffins

Named One of the Most Thought-provoking Books of the Year In this collection of 65 critically acclaimed, personal essays, Pamela Capone writes with both heart and humor. Using historical and contemporary examples-as well as stories from her own life-she writes for the soul and for the sole intention of pointing to love, reinforcing connections between the author's faith and her daily reflections. This multi-award-winning essayist will make you laugh, cry, think and feel. Pamela Capone makes the solid case-especially in these divisive times-that we can still believe in love. The Little Love That Could is about teensy-weensy firecracker love, love that, when ignited, lights up someone's dark night. It's about feet-on-the-ground, sky's-the-limit, life-changing, world-engaging, mustard-seed love that grows from a hunch, an idea, a nudging from above--and then blossoms in the willingness of a heart to act on its sometimes-wobbly faith. Such audacious, underestimated love-like the little engine that could from the children's book--just keeps chugging along over "impossible" hills, shrugging off the naysayers, imagining the view from the top. The difference is, this tenacity in the human heart is what turns seeming underdogs and ragamuffins into influencers and game-changers, right in our own communities, workplaces, homes, or wherever we go in the world. "Pamela Capone must be a riot at parties. She can turn the most mundane details of a day into witty poetry, and find a way to connect it all to God's higher plan for us." - IndieReader Capone's often-hilarious observations and always-engaging experiences will put a little fuel in your tank to help you get up and over, so you can see that all things are indeed possible . . . if you believe that Love can.
