Whereon to Stand

More about the book

Offering a poetic commentary on the Acts of the Apostles, Berrigan presents the idea that this New Testament book remains "unfinished," inviting readers to actively participate in the narrative. Drawing from his experiences of civil disobedience, he urges a return to the bold actions of early Christian peacemakers, advocating for justice and peace. This work not only revitalizes the New Testament but also inspires hope, encouraging individuals to embody the principles of the peacemaking Jesus in their own lives.
