My Brother's Faith: Understanding the Beliefs of Others Without Compromising Your Own - Paperback

by Carlton Fisher (Author)

In a country torn along political, religious, and cultural lines and a world struggling between globalization and extremism, we can hold uncompromisingly to our own beliefs; yet still get along with those of other worldviews. Recalling chaplain ministry to soldiers and prisoners, the author explores the impact of emotional development and spiritual formation on our worldviews and invites healthy dialogue on matters of race, religion, power, and politics. This primer for peacemaking brings a welcome relief for those who struggle with doubts about their faith and a calm for those who are frustrated when others won't or can't see it their way.
