TO RECLAIM THE PROPHETIC VOICE, WE OFFER RESOURCES FOR PEACE-CONVERSATIONS IN RELIGIOUS CONGREGATIONS.  

• We offer resources to challenge the use of violence as a means of social change, and to invite constructive alternatives; and

• In particular, we offer materials to help religious groups to resist being co-opted in support violence-for-social-change, as seen in the “War on Terrorism.”

We provide alternative views and resources that address hot spots where the ugly myth of violence as a solution is being enacted. At the moment these hot spots are in the Israeli - Palestinian conflict and the U.S. “War on Terrorism” in Afghanistan- Pakistan, with imminent threats to expand.

We offer informative links and suggestions for study groups in local churches, synagogues, mosques, parishes and in the larger community, and for religious events  that include liturgy, public prayers, sermons, meditations, bulletin inserts, and the like. 

 We invite you to join in this conversation

• by reading and using the materials in these pages;

• by adding your personal comments and experiences

• by sharing additional resources.

We expect participants to treat others with respect, to argue issues and policies, not personalities and character, and to keep our comments focused and mercifully brief.
