A Challenging Peace in the Life and Stories of Jesus is for anyone who is curious about the stories of Jesus, yearns for peace in their own lives and in the world today, or appreciates the intersections of art, story, faith, and justice. The book interprets forty stories from the Gospels through block print images created by the author, along with their Biblical texts. It also includes the author's own reflections that draw on the story, the art-making process, and how it all speaks to the challenge of making peace in our times. The author believes there are universal truths in the stories around Jesus that reach beyond the limits of Christianity and may help to unite us all in creating a more peace-filled world.
