Amish Peace: Simple Wisdom for a Complicated World

You don't have to "go Amish" to make their practical and peaceful way of life your own! Of all the gifts that Jesus left us, his peace is most elusive. We long for it in our homes, in our relationships, in our life situations. One place we can look and see "living peace" is in the lives of the Amish. But you don't have to become Amish to bring these simple, practical ways of living into your own life; and make personal peace a reality. Organized around five central themes in Amish life, each section will include real-life stories, callouts of Amish proverbs, and interesting facts about Amish communities. Each section will also contain questions for reflection and action--things you can do in your own life that "make for peace." Reflecting on themes of simplicity, time, community, forgiveness, and God's sovereignty, Fisher uses real-life stories, Amish proverbs, interesting facts, thought-provoking questions, and action ideas to show you how to bring lasting harmony to your life: every day.
