Peacemaking doesn’t mean passivity. It is the act of interrupting injustice
without mirroring injustice, the act of disarming evil without destroying the
evildoer, the act of finding a third way that is neither fight nor flight but
the careful, arduous pursuit of reconciliation and justice. It is about a revolution of love that is big
enough to set both the oppressed and the oppressors free.
