Event Description:
Richard Davenport will share his biblical and theological grounds for a spiritual life and practice that sustains one through the challenges of peace and justice work. How can we deal with opposition, roadblocks, division in our own ranks, emotional setbacks and injury, exhaustion, despair, lack of hope, tests of courage, and the capacity to see and appreciate progress?
