In a world of conflict, Pamela Haines calls for the development of skills to wage peace and an "army of nonviolent warriors." Here she offers readers a window into how to become nonviolent warriors through practices that show us how to hope, grieve, listen, welcome conflict, mend, speak truth, and cultivate courage. Engaging stories bring these practices to life and show that by working together we can transform ourselves, our community, and our world. Questions for Reflection and Discussion are included.

Grief, Forgiveness & Redemption As A Way Of Transformation -

BY ELAINE PRYCE
The traumatic loss of a loved one is among the most devastating hurdles that life can throw in a person's path. Such grief, whatever its cause, alters existence forevermore and confronts the survivor, eventually, with a choice: to move through pain into a more authentic way of being, or to withdraw from full engagement with the spiritual meanings of life and mortality. Drawing from her own experience, as well as from art, literature, and traditional wisdom, Elaine Pryce explores the spiritual aspects of grief, recovery from grief, forgiveness, and the blessings of acceptance. Discussion questions included.
