Simple Grace

This text draws on the many and varied experiences of Episcopla priest, Malcolm Boyd's 78 years to provide lessons for others who are facing middle age and beyond. The themes of this work - learning, remembering, simplifying, maturing, exploring and understanding - reflect Boyd's own life, a life that has taken him from Hollywood, where he was a television producer and partner of screen legend Mary Pickford, to the South, where he was a Freedom Rider during the Civil Rights movement, to San Francisco, where he was the "rebel priest" who read prayers and led worship services in coffeehouses and night clubs.
