Synopses & Reviews

Book News Annotation:

Rynne (peace studies, Marquette U.) finds in the life of Gandhi inspiration and understanding about the life and teachings of Jesus. He shares his insights with others, in the context of contemporary biblical scholarship. His themes include Gandhian satyagraha, the multiple versions of salvation theologies, and rethinking Christian salvation in the light of Gandhi's satyagraha.

Synopsis:

As the daily newscasts shout violence and fear, Terrence Rynne reminds us that there is a better way. He shows how Mohandas Gandhi, inspired by the Sermon on the Mount and the death of Jesus on the cross, offers hope for the world now. Gandhi's example and the record of nonviolent action since his death ???????????????????????? liberation of much of the world, from Poland to South Africa to the Philippines ???????????????????????? offers not only a model but a new way of understanding Christian salvation and our purpose on earth. Mr. Rynne makes the "better way" clear and compelling for both individuals and nations.
