The Peaceable Christian: Five Evangelicals Reflect on Peace (Social Justice from Ephesiology)

In The Peaceable Christian, you will read some new perspectives and arguments for understanding how Christians might approach the use of violence—how we might slow down our apparent quickness to use violence, and instead, while properly confronting evil and injustice, set peacemaking as the ultimate goal. This is a book that explores how politics may overly shape current Christian thinking on this subject. And in response the authors argue that biblical and theological thinking should be the starting point for understanding our political responses to peace and war, not vice versa.
