| Résumé : |
How do Christians think about peacemaking in a new millennium? What can we do about ethnic and religious conflicts? How can we create peaceful communities and influence the world system?
Noted writers from Africa, Asia, Europe, and North America tackle such questions. Drawing on rich traditions and experiences, they ponder peacemaking in local and global settings. This book is a gift from Fellowship of Reconciliation and the historic peace churches (Mennonites, Brethren, Quakers) to the world church. It includes insights and experiences of interest to persons of any traditions committed to serving Jesus Christ as peacemakers. |
