Summary: 5 Stars
John Ruth begins with the Amish community's tremendous act of forgiveness for the man and his family who killed and wounded their children. Then he explores the roots of such love in their community life and theological outlook and their faithfulness to the bible and especially the sermon on the mount. This book is well written and highlights the great need for this forgiving love in our society.
