| Publisher Description: The world today is filled with angry voices, voices that often call for isolation and even violence against those who differ from us by race, nationality, religion, sexual orientation, or lifestyle. At the same time there are many voices that call for us to change, to make peace, to open ourselves up to others and hear what they're saying. Most of these voices bring religious arguments to bear on the issue. Rev. Janice Springer goes a step, indeed several steps, further. She tells us how to reach out, how to pray, to interact, and indeed to change ourselves. This book provides a powerful approach to creating new, peaceful relationships and learning to live together while celebrating our differences and growing from them. The book includes guides to study, exercises, and activities, and a sample program for a retreat. It is written from the perspective of the author's Christian ministry, but it is inviting and useful to those of other faith traditions as well. Who will you invite to join you at the table?
