Is nonviolence irresponsible? Is peacemaking na&iuml;ve?<BR />  <BR /> From one of the most respected and prophetic voices in Christianity today comes <I>Speak Your Peace.</I> Ronald J. Sider, author of the influential <I>Rich Christians in an Age of Hunger</I>, plumbs Scripture, building a persuasive case that Jesus meant what he said when he commanded us to love our enemies.<BR />  <BR /> With candor and logic, Sider takes on enduring questions about violence and nonviolence, showing how the contemporary church in a warring world has largely set aside Jesus&rsquo; call to love our enemies and traded its birthright in Christ for a stew of nationalism and militarism. But ignoring what Jesus said about killing is a huge theological mistake. Returning us to the inescapable call of the Son of God, Sider reminds the church of its true vocation in a world of hatred and war.<BR />
