Change the world around you.

There are books about reconciliation in society. And there are books about others who have done reconciliation, or how to instruct others in reconciliation. But then there are a few books about how to bring reconciliation into your own life, thereby changing the world around you. This is one of those books. If after reading this book, you aren't compelled to act upon what you have read by forgiving old hurts, welcoming "different" folks into your community, or by seeking out the God who makes it all possible, then I would suggest you haven't really read it very well. The end of each chapter gives practical questions to examine our own lives, and see how we can change what we do in our homes, jobs, and churches, bringing reconciliation which heals divinely, to our families, neighbors, and even strangers on the street. Read it. Choose to change the world around you.
