Peacemaker, author, and Nobel Peace Prize Nominee Father John Dear will be with us to talk about and sign copies of his new book, his life’s work: The Gospel of Peace: A Commentary on Matthew, Mark, and Luke from the Perspective of Nonviolence.
The Gospel of Peace is the first-ever commentary on the Synoptic Gospels from the perspective of active nonviolence, in the tradition of Gandhi and Dr. King. In this original work, Fr. John walks us through every line of the three synoptic Gospels—pointing out Jesus' practice and teachings on nonviolence, peace, and universal love—and invites us to follow him. Free to the public.
