A Field Guide to Christian Nonviolence: Key Thinkers, Activists, and Movements for the Gospel of Peace Paperback - 2022
by David C. Cramer; Myles Werntz
From the rear cover
"Highly recommended for the church, the academy, and all those who care about peace"
Christian nonviolence is not a settled position but a vibrant and living tradition. This concise book invites us to explore this tradition and discover how we might live out the gospel in our modern world.
"A Field Guide to Christian Nonviolence will become the indispensable textbook that with relative simplicity introduces the varieties of pacifism to modern--especially Protestant--Christian audiences. This book will be featured in all my peace and war classes at both the undergraduate and seminary levels for years to come. Highly recommended."
--David P. Gushee, Mercer University; host of the Kingdom Ethics podcast
"How do white evangelical scholars offer guidance on needed Christian theological understandings of nonviolence that acknowledges the revelations about John Yoder's sexual violence against women? Cramer and Werntz do so with a critical perspective that insists on advancing divergent expressions of Christian commitments to actual practices. Whether you argue with their interpretations or relish the gift of their expansive vision, you will find an impressive Christian exploration of lived practices and traditions of nonviolence."
--Traci C. West, Drew Theological School
"A Field Guide to Christian Nonviolence is a much-needed, fresh critical introduction to the many streams of this dynamic, yet often narrowly conceived, tradition of thought and practice. Historically and theologically sensitive, this book lifts up diverse representatives that reveal the breadth and urgency of Christian nonviolence in a world where violence wears many faces. This accessible volume is highly recommended for the church, the academy, and all those who care about peace."
--Eric Gregory, Princeton University
"With unusual nuance and insight, Cramer and Werntz identify eight forms of Christian nonviolence, bringing to life its ecclesial and spiritual depth. They also magnify the political and transformative voice of nonviolence, illustrating how its inspiration and effects reach far beyond the church. This creative yet historically grounded volume is a valuable addition to the war and peace literature."
--Lisa Sowle Cahill, Boston College
