Spirituals, songs of abiding faith passed down by African Americans through the centuries, offer a remarkable view of resilience, courage, and love. Formed in the crucible of fire, these songs express the suffering and horror of slavery as well as the love of God and the promise of a better future. Author Mark Bozzuti-Jones explores the modern-day lessons of these Spirituals with scripture readings, daily devotions, and questions for reflection. With 31 days of devotions, Face to the Rising Sun offers a path forward, a way to repent and name the evils of racism and to learn and grow together in God’s love.

He is the priest and director of spiritual formation of Trinity’s Retreat Center in West Cornwall, Connecticut. A former Jesuit priest, Mark has missionary experience in Belize, Brazil, and Guyana.
