If Jesus taught peacemaking, forgiveness, and compassion, and if a Christian is a person who follows Jesus, then why do some Christians support wars and other violence? This book is a call to all Christians to ask, are they Christians in name only, or do they really follow Jesus? It provides many examples of courageous people who follow Jesus as they walk through harrowing challenges. Also included are research and suggestions for how we can help our children to make wise and compassionate decisions in order to create a more peaceful world.
