Peace of God's gift to us expressed fully in the person of Jesus Christ. This volume encourages readers to lay claim to Christ's promise of peace, to make each day an experience of God and an experience of the gift of peace. A practical book, it gives facts, raises questions and blends the liturgical cycle with the secular cycle of civic observances and recurring yearly events. This linking of faith and daily life makes the book a useful tool for all who take the Gospel seriously, especially teachers, directors of adult education and those involved in RCIA. The 12 chapters of the book mirror the 12 months of the year, and focus on key solemnities and modern events - such as the assasination of Oscar Romero and the bombing of Nagasaki - that urgently remind us of the need for harmony. Short questions for reflection are useful for peace action and faith groups, as well as for individual readers, to help put ideas into action.
