Book excerpt: "To take care of each other should be our primary concern in this 21st century and Father Dear is steady on this course." --Thich Nhat Hanh For John Dear, a Jesuit priest and respected leader of the ecumenical peace movement, the spiritual life is a combination of contemplation and action, of maintaining inner peace and projecting that peace into the greater world. It is the spirituality exemplified by the lives of Gandhi, Martin Luther King, Jr., Mother Teresa, the Dalai Lama, and others throughout history who remained true to the highest ideals while addressing the most difficult problems and conflicts of the real world. As a tireless advocate for social justice and human rights, Dear has followed that path in his own life, and in Living Peace he describes his journey. Breaking down the life of peace into three parts an inner journey, a public journey, and the journey of all humanity he shares the spiritual practices that have sustained him and teaches readers how to integrate these practices into their own lives. From the Hardcover edition.

Book excerpt: God has authored days of heaven on earth for His children - not days of worry, fear, or doubt - but of peace. Many think that life would be peaceful if the enemy would leave them alone, but he won't. We must learn to live untroubled and undisturbed right in the presence of the enemy. The peace God gives makes that possible. The greatest value of peace isn't seen when everything is running smoothly and in place, rather, when circumstances are high and storms are raging. In this book, Nancy Dufresne teaches how to close the door to worry, fear, and doubt, and live the life God authored for us - days of Peace: Living Free from Worry.
