In a political atmosphere where, as author William Klassen characterizes it, "hope is in short supply... within and outside the church," the twin themes of "love of enemies" and "search for peace" hardly seem compatible. Klassen maintains, however, that the two are not only consistent but also have co-existed from ancient times to the present, due in large part to the Jesus movement. Illuminating old, familiar texts as well as other that have previously been ignored, Klassen shows how people can strive for peace by following both modern figures who have gone before them as well as long-neglected biblical resources.
