Choosing Against War

Choosing Against War

A Christian View

BY JOHN ROTH

Brief Description:
"Roth wrote this short, simple introduction to Christian pacifism 'out of a conviction that the gospel of Jesus Christ does indeed speak to the crises of our day with a perspective that is both distinctive and unique.' Very much in the tradition of Christian apology, the book isn't likely to convert readers with Nietzschean inclinations, whom it often seems to be arguing against. But those curious about Christian pacifism and the strains of the Christian tradition, particularly the historic peace churches (Mennonites, Brethren, and Quakers), which understand that nonviolence lies at the heart of the gospel, could do worse than to start their learning here." - Booklist
