“In these pages, Kathleen Kern pens a fascinating and important account of the founding and history of the Christian Peacemaker Teams in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict . . . Enlisting dissenting Jews and Palestinians in a struggle for human and political rights, Kern stands as a dramatic Christian witness of the possibility of justice and reconciliation between and among peoples of different faiths. This book narrates the difficulties and sacrifices involved in such a task, a revolutionary task if you will, that continues today.”

Bethlehem Besieged

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“'' Bethlehem Besieged is first a document of horror and hope about the plight and possibilities that confront the Palestinian people. But it is also more. As a Jew I see this story as a warning to the Jewish people that we are becoming almost everything we loathed about our oppressors. For me, Mitri Raheb's gentle anger is a prophetic call to Jews in Israel and beyond to stop and reverse course before it is too late....A gripping real-life story....''”

Betrayal

History & Biography

“The contention of this volume—that the German churches played a far more important role in the Nazi atrocities than has been hitherto realized—is convincingly documented here in a readable and provocative way.”

Call and Commitment

Theology

“Naim Ateek’s memoir, spanning the history of the Palestinian catastrophe and the birth of the state of Israel, is expansive in its breadth yet detailed in its markings. Through trial and tribulation, Ateek is firm and open, justice-seeking, and compassionate. We the readers embark with Ateek on a journey of despair and hope where faith is tried and honed.”

Christians and a Land Called Holy

“This book is an important addtion to the burgeoning witness of Chrstians who, while fighting anti-Semitism, struggle also for the freedom of the Palestinian people.”

Justice on the Cross

Theology

“Justice on the Cross is a needed and provocative primer on the development and journey of a Palestinian theology of liberation in dialogue with the history of Israel-Palestine, Christian witness around the world, and the evolving Jewish theology of liberation. With Kathleen Christison as our guide, all hands are on deck as the seemingly intractable crisis in the Middle East continues to unfold in despair and hope.”

Letters from “Apartheid Street”

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“What is hopeful about these letters is the humanity the author shows through his interaction with Jews and Palestinians. In a down-to-earth yet profound way, this book shows Jews a way out of the injustice of occupying another people. What more important lesson do we Jews have to learn before it is too late?”

Afterword

“Art Gish writes movingly as he draws from his diverse and difficult commitments in the world . . . Gish has seized his moment to be faithful in the world. It is up to us to seize our moment.”

Occupied with Nonviolence

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“Jean Zaru's life represents the tragic aspect of contemporary Palestinian history and its possibility, if only Jews and Palestinians will heed her compelling voice. What could have been if such a voice had been heeded? Reading JEan Zaru's life story places the present Israeli-Palestinian starkly before us. Is Jean Zaru's way the way forward?”
