Vessel of Peace

Summary: WANT TO GO DEEPER? READ & SHARE THIS BOOK WITH OTHERS!
Review: This book came to me as a gift when I sent my annual membership donation to the Foundation For Community Encouragement. When I first started reading it I was a little uncomfortable with the format of Doug asking questions and having E.S. answer them--it seemed a bit arrogant, but as I read on I'm finding that these are questions I often ponder. I'm deliberately reading the book slowly, allowing myself time to question what I've read and find applications to my life. The responses offer insights, they are thought provoking and even profound. They are not pretentious and Doug and E.S. don't seem to be saying that this is THE FINAL ANSWER. To the contrary they encourage self discovery and living in genuine community.

The book debunks many of the myths our socialization teaches as truths, allowing the reader the opportunity to empty herself of thought and behavior processes that are barriers to the quality of life our society currently only idealizes.

Vessell of Peace would work well for use by churches or other organizations as a group study series. I'll be buying copies to share with the people I love, worship and work with.
