In Reconciling All Things Emmanuel Katongole and Chris Rice, codirectors of the Center for Reconciliation at Duke Divinity School, cast a comprehensive vision for reconciliation that is biblical, transformative, holistic and global. They draw on the resources of the Christian story, including their own individual experiences in Uganda and Mississippi, to bring solid, theological reflection to bear on the work of reconciling individuals, groups and societies. They recover distinctively Christian practices that will help the church be both a sign and an agent of God's reconciling love in the fragmented world of the twenty-first century. - from book cover "The state of the world today is one of geopolitical crisis and warfare, of ethnic and tribal conflict, of struggling families and traumatized children, of environmental exploitation and degradation. Societies are split over the issues of class, religion, politics, socioeconomic power, race and access to resources. Nations continue to face atrocities of slavery, exploitation and genocide. In short, our world cries out for reconciliation. But mere conflict resolution is not enough. What makes real reconciliation possible? How is it that some people are able to forgive the most horrendous of evils? And what role does God play in these stories? Does reconciliation make any sense apart from the biblical story of redemption?" --back cover sem críticas | adicionar uma crítica
