Examining the work of John Howard Yoder, Dorothy Day, William Stringfellow, and Robert McAfee Brown, this book explores how each thinker's advocacy for nonviolent resistance depends deeply upon the ecclesiology out of which it comes. These forms comprise four strands of a comprehensive Christian approach to a nonviolent witness rooted in ecclesial life.</abstract> <note type="statement of responsibility">Myles Werntz</note> <subject> <topic>Ecclesiologie</topic> </subject> <subject> <topic>Nonviolence Religious aspects</topic> </subject> <classification authority="ddc">230.09</classification> <classification authority="ddc">W491-M100</classification> <identifier type="isbn">9781451480429</identifier> <identifier type="uri">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/14249/bodies-of-peace.jpg</identifier> <location> <url displayLabel="Cover Image">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/14249/bodies-of-peace.jpg</url> </location> <recordInfo> <recordCreationDate encoding="marc">2024-0</recordCreationDate> <recordChangeDate encoding="iso8601">20260119071338.0</recordChangeDate> </recordInfo> </mods>
