Forgiveness, Reconciliation, and Moral Courage
Motives and Designs for Ministry in a Troubled World (Studies in Practical Theology)
by Robert L. Browning and Roy A. Reed
"Partly a survey of existing attitudes and partly a how-to manual for developing an active "public" church, this book highlights the importance of forgiveness and reconciliation in both congregational life and society, and it traces out the intricacies of making them happen. After discussing common views of human nature and exploring the concepts of forgiveness and reconciliation as found in Scripture and church tradition, Robert Browning and Roy Reed put forth a four-pronged approach integrating recent scientific studies of forgiveness with bold, theologically grounded ministry proposals."--BOOK JACKET.

First Sentence
"In considering seriously our ministries of confession, forgiveness, reconciliation, and the development of moral courage it is necessary to come down from the heights of theological inquiry and biblical investigation and enter into conversation with people in the churches who hopefully both receive and share these ministries."
