The word "reconciliation" is not used in the Hebrew scriptures, and appears only thirteen times in the Pauline and Deuteropauline writings. Yet, in popular Christian imagination it has become a key concept for what the church should be doing during - and after - violent and disruptive social change. Schreiter explores the paradoxes in social and religious reflection that reveal the violence inherent in the vocation of peacemaking and meditates masterfully on the contradictions that define our age, bringing to the fore the uniqueness of the challenge bequeathed to the followers of Christ.
