The Journey Toward Reconciliationby John Paul Lederach |
|
"Fantastic stuff! Practical. Credible. In The Journey Toward Reconciliation, Lederach faithfully follows Scripture and makes the words come alive in practical work. Important. The church needs it. The world needs it!" --Robert A. Seiple, Former President, World Vision
We live in a diverse, but interdependent world. Even with modern technology, communications, and travel, we still need to build relationships leading to reconciliation.
Lederach shares insights gained from years of work in international mediation and deep spiritual reflection on the task of reconciliation. From personal experiences and the Bible story, he finds God seeking reconciliation throughout history. Here is help for conflicted families, communities, and nations.
"Lederach’s vivid personal stories of peacemaking illustrate his deep insights into the preeminent challenge of our times: learning how to live together in the midst of deep differences. I highly recommend this book." --William L. Ury, Coauthor, Getting to Yes
