Publisher's Synopsis
In a world threatened by nuclear war, peace must be the goal we strive for. In this wide-ranging book of essays from distinguished Christians we saw that peace is not the easy option but calls for the radical acceptance in our hearts of the gospel message of Christ. In this uncompromising book the writers discuss the biblical perspectives on peace, the tradition of pacifism in the Early Church and how pacifism can and must affect the core of our lives in the world today. Peace Together celebrates the fiftieth anniversary of the foundation of the Anglican Pacifist Fellowship. The contributors include George Appleton, John Austin Baker, Clive Barrett, Jenny Barrett, David Bleakley, Barbara Eggleston, John Ferguson, Valerie Flessati, John Gessell, Bruce Kent, Sara Maitland, James O'Connell, Paul Oestreicher, Clare Prangley, Christopher Rowland, Donald Soper and Gordon Wilson.
