“These accounts ring true with an undeniable sincerity and an earnest devotion to being practitioners of peace. CPT challenges all who profess pacifism to ‘get in the way’ of war-making on a daily basis, forming communities dedicated to the further invention of nonviolence. When we calculate the commitments and the results made apparent in CPT’s short history, the greater amazement is that populations continue pouring resources into warfare to resolve disputes.”

Living in the Company of Jesus
Christian Living
“Simon Harak’s passion for companionship with Jesus infused his constant search for nonviolent ways to resist war and cruelty. Simon opened doors for his friends, students, and loved ones to deepen their relationship to Jesus and the Gospels. Philip, his brother, readily joined the journey. Their meditations reveal the beautiful life of a man who was uproariously funny, constantly kind, and lovingly courageous. Living in the Company of Jesus invites readers to follow Simon’s lead.”

“Peggy Faw Gish steadfastly refused to let war sever the bonds of friendship that had grown between her and numerous Iraqi friends. She witnessed the ongoing U.S. torment of Iraqis. By remaining with people afflicted by economic and military warfare, listening carefully and honestly chronicling what she saw and heard, she has created a compelling description of life in a country devastated by invasions, dictatorship, sanctions, and war.”
