These chapters are rooted in a World Council of Churches conference of Historic Peace Churches in Asia that took place in Solo, Indonesia. There, as part of the WCC's Decade to Overcome Violence, Asian Christians engaged interfaith diversity, violence, and radical pluralism in Asia.

This volume presents another strong contribution to the ongoing search for a credible and faithful Christian presence in the midst of religious pluralism, in face of religious radicalism and the violence of poverty.

Among recent publications on peace and justice, this book stands out as a "must read." Informative, provocative, and inspiring, From Nonresistance to Justice helps to ensure that church-centered conversations on the gospel of peace will continue to move forward in a lively and relevant way.

I fell in love with Anabaptist Vision thiry years ago but always wondered to what extent it still applies today. The beauty of the words recorded here and the significance of the issues convince m that the vision has not dimmed and that the Spirit is still working abundantly in our midst.
