The work of cultivating the common good starts in your own neighborhood.
In
Becoming Neighbors, Amar D. Peterman explores how the common good can be cultivated through the practice of neighbor love. Peterman illuminates the biblical call to love others, to seek goodness, and to build spaces of belonging while also offering tangible practices of neighbor love—including compassion, resonance, lamentation, and accompaniment—that translate across diverse communities.
At the heart of this book is a simple but critical question:
How will we live? Amidst our differences and disagreements, through the strife and terror of our world, through the reality of death and the hope of resurrection, the answer forChristians is clear:
We live as neighbors.
