Personal Nonviolence: A Practical Spirituality for Peacemakers

By Gerard Vanderhaar. Celebrate the 25th anniversary of the peace pastoral!
In this book, a compilation of much of his decades-long work on nonviolence, Vanderhaar explains how a spirituality of nonviolence provides methods and guidance in everyday activities. He outlines how this spirituality helps us to deal with the challenges of life today. Understanding nonviolence can guide peacemakers to a practical spirituality based on the nonviolent Christ, our guide and inspiration.
