This is the story of two deeply traditional communities as they encounter change. How can Somalis apply the profound peacemaking resources of their culture and faith in a society f ragmented by violence? And how can modernizing Mennonites make sense of their peace convictions in the context of civil war and military intervention? The author shows how the common quest to transform enmity brings out the best in both communities, and suggests what a fruitful partnership might look like in the present challenges. Students, academics, and lay readers alike will find on these pages a compelling invitation to join the peace clan. Paperback. Wipf & Stock, 2016. 260 pages. Show more
