How is Christ the answer to a strained relationship with a spouse, child, parent, or sibling? What if I am being mistreated&#151;how can the atonement help me cope with that? How can I discover the desire to repent when I don't feel the need to repent" And how can I invite others to do the same? These are the challenging, difficult questions of daily life, questions to which the gospel must provide answers if it is to have living, cleansing, redeeming power. <P>The Peacegiver is a book about the answers to these questions. Unlike other books about the atonement, The Peacegiver is written as an extended parable. It tells the story of a man struggling, with the help of a loved one, to come unto Christ. IN reading the rich details of his often difficult journey, we find ourselves embarked on a personal journey of our own. His questions are our questions; his problems, our problems; his discoveries, our discoveries. Along the way, the truths of the gospel are unfolded with surprising clarity and power, illuminating aspects of the atonement that few of us have ever heard or considered before. These surprising implications show us the way to deep and lasting peace in our hearts and homes. <P>"My peace I give unto you," the Savior declared. The Peacegiver explores in a deeply personal way what we must do to receive the peace he stands willing to give. 2243662 2 2004 The Peacegiver: How Christ Offers to Heal Our Hearts and Homes total:4619|5:2871|4:1169|3:440|2:114|1:25| 4619 20604 5707 1407 3 5 false false Thu Mar 01 00:00:00 -0800 2007 Wed Mar 26 17:18:06 -0700 2008 Wed Mar 26 17:18:06 -0700 2008 more...]]> 5 4 false false Thu Jun 01 00:00:00 -0700 2006 Wed Oct 10 15:48:43 -0700 2007 Thu Oct 11 09:45:51 -0700 2007 more...]]> 2 3 false false Wed Jun 11 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Sat Jun 14 10:20:45 -0700 2008 Wed Jun 18 14:27:14 -0700 2008 more...]]> 3 3 false false Thu May 01 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Fri Apr 25 18:32:04 -0700 2008 Tue May 13 11:37:34 -0700 2008 more...]]> 3 3 false false Tue Apr 01 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Fri May 02 13:20:37 -0700 2008 Sun May 18 21:53:02 -0700 2008 It does an excellent job of conveying and teaching relatively complex principles in a fun and easy-read kind of way, so if you're not into dense, philosophical literature, you can gain an awful lot from thi...more...]]> 4 2 false false Tue Jan 29 00:00:00 -0800 2008 Mon Feb 11 09:51:28 -0800 2008 Mon Feb 25 11:53:53 -0800 2008 more...]]> 5 2 false false Sat Mar 15 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Fri Apr 18 07:04:37 -0700 2008 Fri Apr 18 07:11:47 -0700 2008
