Chapter 4 ~ Nonviolence

Questions

1. In what ways has violence become an accepted part of life for you?  Is there any level of violence in your theology, entertainment, or language that feels "appropriate" or "acceptable"?
2. How do you practice nonviolence in your home?  In your neighborhood or faith community?
3. What cultural barriers make that practice more difficult?
4. What Scriptures have you heard used out of context to defend capital punishment, "stand your ground" laws, or upholding violent systems in other ways?
