| The stories recounted in this collection of first-person
narratives were written by members of Christian Peacemaker Teams (CPT).
The fear, joy, and challenge faced by these committed Christians is
reported vividly from trouble spots like Haiti, Iraq, and Colombia,
where the CPT work to reduced violence and conflict. Whether relating
an account of incarceration in an Israeli prison, the death of a CPT
member in Iraq, or coming face-to-face with angry loggers in the
forests of Canada, the narratives in Getting in the Way are
intimate, moving, and deeply humanizing. Copyright 2005 Herald

| The combined name Palestine-Israel only hints at the deep
fissures dividing this land. An introductory book like this one can
only offer a brief glimpse of such a complex conflict. Mennonites in
Canada and the United States regularly ask Mennonites workers in
Palestine-Israel about the complexities of the Palestinian-Israeli
conflict. Sonia K. Weaver presents some of the questions Mennonite
workers in Palestine regularly receive from supporters in Canada, the
United States and beyond along with straightforward answers. While the
book grew out of the experience of Mennonite Central Committee (MCC), a
relief, development, and peacebuilding agency of Mennonite and Brethren
in Christ churches, it also pays attention to the work of other
Mennonite mission and peacebuilding agencies in the country. The
booklet is organized by theme, but all of the areas are inter-related.
Includes a listing of additional resources for further study.

challenges of living in the new nation of Israel. From the Sinai War
(1956), Six-Day War (1967), and Yom Kippur War (1973) to the ever-
present threat of terrorism to the antagonism between Christians, Jews,
and Muslims to the constant possibility of being evicted from the
country, life in Israel was often filled with danger and uncertainty.
Land of Revelation tells the story of peacemaking and
reconciliation, the work of the Holy Spirit in a vibrant church of
local believers, and the power of prayer to bring about change.

| Arthur G. Gish records a moving story of the turmoil and suffering of the Palestinian people, the
agony experienced by Israelis, and a vision of hope and new possibilities of reconciliation between Jews,
Muslims, and Christians. From 1995 to 2001, Gish experiences living with Muslim families, engaging
in nonviolent actions with Israelis and Palestinians, and struggling to find creative responses to situations of
injustice. Selected excerpts from his journal tell of the Christian Peacemaker Teams (CPT) work and give a
vision of how small peacemaking groups can make a difference in violent conflicts. | | | | Under Vine and Fig Tree: Biblical Theologies of Land and the Palestinian-Israeli Conflict | View shopping basket | | by Alain Epp Weaver, editor | |
