| World War I stirred intense patriotism. John Witmer soon found
out that soldier boys didn't have much patience…or mercy…with
conscientious objectors. Though verbal and physical abuse took an
awful toll, John's heart was set to follow Christ's example of
nonresistance to evil, and God gave him grace to endure. This true
account reminds us of the cost of discipleship and challenges us to
faithfulness. Copyright 2006 Christian Light Publications | | | | I Couldn't Fight and Other CO Stories: 1917-1960 | View shopping basket | |

History
| Civilian Public Service camps played an important role during
World War II. Although they operated for only a brief time, their
contribution should not be forgotten. Many young men who served their
country as conscientious objectors in these camps, benefited from the
experience for the rest of their lives. Three Years in the
Rockies tells the story of a young Mennonite man, Daniel R.
Schrag, from McPherson, Kansas. For three years he lived and worked in
Glacier National Park in Montana, as part of CPS Camp #55. From
unusual work assignments, to hiking adventures, to new skills learned,
life in the might mountains changed Daniel's life. He still treasures
those memories. The test is enhanced with excerpts from Daniel's
letters to his family as well as small portions of letters his family
wrote to him. Black and white photographs taken in the park are
scattered throughout the book. Numerous inserts include quotes from
The Trailmaker and Camp Letter, publications of Camp #55, as well as
trivia on various animals of Glacier National Park. Copyright 2007

| "Peace in our time"--this quest and prayer of Christians for centuries is perhaps
more valid today than ever before. In an increasingly angry and abusive world,
the Christian spiritual heritage of peace is being lost to a culture of violence
and retaliation. Peace--Just Live It! addresses the challenges facing
youth in the 21st century and develops the skills young people need to live as
God's peacemakers. The curriculum's 10 sessions include suce topics as peace in
the Bible, family violence, racism, criminal justice and reconciliation,
conscientious objection, and more. Each lesson follows a step-by-step teaching
plan and includes user-friendly, reproducible student sheets. Through active
sessions, youth are led to examine their world, look to the Bible, and apply
the truths they find to their everyday lives. The material poses tough
questions--requiring youth and leaders to explore Scripture together and
struggle with issues of violence in their own settings to find God's direction. | |
