With the United States more divided than at any time since the Civil War, polarization, mistrust, and blame permeate not only the talking points of Washington and the news media, but also most of our conversations and social media feeds. In Peace Talks, pastor and community developer David Drum carefully examines how we got into such a mess, boldly discusses some of Jesus' priorities within both political parties, and provides practical guidance for turning your painful and frustrating conversations into productive and fulfilling ones.

Unity for any group requires work and intentionality. Building on Jesus' prayer and Paul's analogy, Jesus' Surprising Strategy examines five levels of unity, each building on the previous one, and each providing a practical, biblical means for the roles you can play to fulfill Jesus' prayer in our day, in your relationships, and in your city. It concludes with a case study of how this is beginning to be realized in Tucson, Arizona. David Drum encourages, instructs, and reveals his personal journey toward seeing Christian unity as a mandate worthy of your very best effort.
