LIVING NONVIOLENCE: THE WAY OF JESUS, THE LIFE OF PEACE
Presented by Fr. John Dear
7-9pm
at the House of Prayer and on Zoom
Rev. John Dear will talk about the way of active nonviolence as the path of peace, taught by Gandhi and Martin Luther King, Jr. Using his book, "The Nonviolent Life," he will describe the three attributes of practicing nonviolence to ourselves; practicing nonviolence toward all people, all creatures, and all creation; and participating in the global grassroots movement of nonviolence for disarmament, justice and creation. He will also explain that Jesus was totally nonviolent and Christians are called to practice his way of total nonviolence, peace and universal love.
