Community Practices for Making Peace
Resources for Reconciliation
by L. Gregory Jones and Célestin Musekura
Christians are supposed to forgive others as we've been forgiven. But hearing the call to forgive is different from knowing how to practice forgiveness at home and in the world.

Greg Jones and Célestin Musekura ...
