A classic of faith-based activism-updated for a new generation.

Why was Daniel Berrigan wanted by the FBI? Why did Robert Coles harbor a fugitive?

Listen in to the conversations between

these two great teachers as they struggle with what it means to

put your faith to the test. Discover how their story of

challenging the status quo during a time of great political,

religious, and social change is just as applicable to our lives

today.

Thirty years ago, at the height of U.S.

involvement in the Vietnam War, Daniel Berrigan, a Jesuit

priest, was wanted by the FBI for his nonviolent protest

activities. He hid in the house of Robert Coles, who would

later win the Pulitzer Prize. The two began a dialogue that

encompasses a fascinating range of topics, from war,

psychology, and violence, to social institutions, compassion,

activism, and family life.

With this expanded, anniversary edition of

a classic, new generations of readers can examine for

themselves how spirituality is not only for ourselves, but

often demands action and personal risk in the public arena.

New to this edition, Robert Coles offers

historical perspective on this turbulent time and assesses the

progress of faith-based activism in the years since. Daniel

Berrigan challenges today’s activists in a new afterword.

Finally, a glossary of terms helps to

clarify the key people, places, and movements that are often

the subject of the Coles/Berrigan conversations.
