Summary

This book provides real-life stories, practical reflection, and spiritual insight on constructive interaction with conflict while pursuing reconciliation. We live in a multicultural, diverse, and interdependent world. Too often our differences have led to division and violence. Even with modern communications we still need to build relationships that nonviolently deal with conflict and build pathways toward true reconciliation.
